TATIP Work
“In the TATIP program I am on the advanced track. Through the program I was able to complete a short residency at the Young Women’s Leadership Academy in my home town of Queens with Jennifer Michael Hect as my mentor. I thank TATIP for the many seminars I was able to attend, especially those that catered to teaching social justice in the classroom.”
