"All it takes is one person to advocate for us, to push us and motivate us to pursue an opportunity we might otherwise brush aside. For me, that one person was my high school teacher. When I was looking for a job during my final semester of college, she told me about this role at Uncommon. I was excited about working for an organization that’s given so much to me as a student. I’ve come full circle at Uncommon Schools, first as a student and now as the diversity coordinator at the Home Office in New York City."
