About August

I am an early career professional with experience concentrated in working with college students with disabilities. My primary experiences have involved determining and implementing accommodations at the college level. I've also assisted students with developing plans for connecting with resources, goal-setting and time management, and building specific skills in reading, writing, and use of technology. I attended Amherst College as a first-generation, low-income student and was a QuestBridge National College Match scholarship recipient. My degree is in Education Studies with specific focus in social justice education. With that in mind, I am passionate about working with students from marginalized backgrounds and bring an intersectional lens to my work so students receive informed, individualized support.
