Brianna holds a BA from Harvard University and an MBA from the University of Cambridge. Her research explores how artificial intelligence is transforming education and its implications for social mobility. She is particularly interested in whether AI-driven tools democratize opportunity or reinforce inequality, especially for students from low-income backgrounds. This interest stems from both personal experience‚ education was the key that transformed her life, and professional work as the founder of a social impact start-up supporting high-achieving, low-income students.
Prior to this, she worked in innovation strategy, helping organizations reimagine what could be possible if current constraints were set aside. At OII, she aims to combine these perspectives with rigorous new methods to investigate how AI in education can be harnessed to close achievement gaps rather than widen them.
