Alyssa (she/her) is a senior in Kirkland pursuing Linguistics with Neuroscience and an EdSecondary. Born and raised in Malaysia, she is deeply interested in child language acquisition, multilingualism, and education policies surrounding language. She also cares a lot about equitable access to high-quality educational resources and extracurricular opportunities. Beyond academics, Alyssa is heavily involved with the Phillips Brooks House Association (PBHA), particularly the Summer Urban Program, and has also helped work on research studying children with learning disabilities. She's always happy to grab a coffee and chat about any of these topics!
