I am a researcher and scholar working at the intersection of leadership, technology, and healthcare. As part of my Ph.D. studies at Lesley University, I explored and reformulated Hannah Arendt's concepts of the Private and the Public as presented in her seminal work, The Human Condition. My dissertation proposes a novel understanding of the Private and Public as modes of human existence and interaction across diverse domains, including education, business, and doctor education. My work examines how leadership emerges through Verwandlungen and how movement between Private and Public spheres can serve as a catalyst for innovation, transformation, and collective action.
As part of my academic work, I also strive to improve the well-being of populations and shed light on the obstacles they face. As part of my last talk, I had the honor of virtually speaking at the Human Development and Capability Conference in Antwerp, Belgium. My talk, titled 'In Between Worlds' focused on the profound isolation experienced in liminal circumstances, where individuals lack the capability to express themselves and take action. The conference theme was 'Capabilities and Transformative Institutions' and I was grateful for the chance to contribute to such an esteemed event.
