The Harvard Prison Legal Assistance Project provides legal information to incarcerated people and represents Massachusetts prisoners in prison disciplinary hearings and in parole hearings for people serving life sentences. I serve as the only full-time staff person at PLAP. I manage the finances, work with students on policy, hire and supervise interns, and work with university, community, and government actors to advance PLAP's mission of educating law students and serving prisoners.

I wrote case studies and teaching notes with Harvard Business School faculty. I focused on non-profits, education, diversity & leadership, and agriculture.

GLAD is a law firm specializing in civil rights work for Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, and HIV-positive communities. GLAD attorneys argued the cases in Massachusetts and at the United States Supreme Court that legalized same-sex marriage.
