I do research in [higher] education and international development. In addition to this work, I am committed to the advancement of other people. Through the Sunray Initiative, I support primary and secondary school students in rural communities. As a co-founder of the African Early Career Researchers in Education (AECRE) network, I am committed to supporting the next generation of African researchers. The goal of my work is to connect with and work collaboratively with individuals, groups, communities, and organizations interested in identifying and implementing context-relevant solutions to higher education challenges facing Africa.
