Natasha Wilkins

I believe in the right of every human to have access to the resources necessary to achieve their fullest potential. This belief fuels my passion for social justice and my domestic and international advocacy for policy that manifests equitable systems. My work in the classroom provided laser sharp clarity on the intersection of economics and education demonstrating that policy development must be holistic to truly facilitate systemic change. I carried this understanding as my guide in advocating against the use of child soldiers in conflict, in litigating for equitable access to Medicare benefits, and in my current position shaping education funding policy. Innovation and collaboration, coupled with a steely determination to effectuate change, gives me hope that we can make the world a better place for all people and I look forward to working with others who believe the same.
