EVkids is a faith-based organization that provides economically disadvantaged young people with access to educational opportunity. They recruit and guide Harvard, and a few other area university undergraduates, volunteer students to engage in a one-to-one multi-year tutoring/mentoring match program with Boston's opportunity youth. The Harvard Catholic Center is blessed to be a longtime partner with EVkids and a supporter of its social justice mission.

She is a graduate of Loyola University Chicago (B.A. Sociology) and Boston College (M.A. Theology and Ministry) and previously worked in Rome as the Campus Ministry and Social Justice Coordinator for study abroad students at the John Felice Rome Center.
