M.C. is a community-minded educator who strives to make higher education accessible, hospitable, and inclusive. Originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota, M.C. received a bachelor’s degree in psychology and Spanish from Hope College before moving to Boston, where they completed a master’s in global and community engagement at BU’s School of Theology. Having worked with preschool-aged children, grad students and everyone in-between, M.C. uses their training in developmental psychology to create programming that is innovative, practical and fun. She says, “as a student, I needed the support of friends and mentors to navigate the highs and lows of undergraduate and graduate education. It is an honor to support our first-gen students and to walk alongside them on their educational journeys.” A Minnesota native, you can often find them baking, practicing northern hospitality, and arguing that “Midwest is best.”
