Anjali has proven to be an engaging and dynamic facilitator who roots her practice in being able to hold one another accountable while holding each other close.

“Anjali's genuine commitment to social justice and equity is clear and this is rare among administrators who often talk the talk without any depth of understanding or commitment to the principles of social justice. In particular, she is no stranger to stepping in and stepping up to address situations with sensitivity and awareness, turning difficult moments into learning opportunities for both students and staff. I appreciate the way she was supportive of my learning. ”
