Description
I am a midcareer student at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government. I am interested in "trust" building on the internet, especially in business and professional situations. I am also interested in stories about how emerging technologies have helped people in remote locations to access education - in the US and globally.

Educational Interests

Area of Interest: Adult Education
Subject
High school, higher education and adult education. Online dispute resolution.
Research Interest:
I am exploring how emerging technologies can be used to deliver education opportunities for those (especially women) at all levels outside the traditional education system. I am interested in how distance education can be delivered, especially in hybrid fashion, to help those who do not have access to school - e.g. those in rural areas.
