Flow Tejada ‘11 believes a student's zip code should never determine how far they go, and she has built her career around ensuring it doesn't.
Flow is an immigrant raised in a family of many educators, including her mother, and she grew up knowing what it means to navigate systems that weren't built with you in mind. As a first-gen college student, she found that programs like Upward Bound and Posse helped open doors for her, and everything she does professionally is, in some way, an attempt to do the same for someone else. An internship during her junior year at Dickinson College cemented this path.
She began her career in a middle school classroom, went on to build a college counseling program from the ground up, and later led partnerships at OneGoal in NY. She now serves as Director of College Advancement for KIPP Public Schools' Southeast region, the largest charter school network in the country. She is also a Dickinson College Trustee and a first-year lecturer at Rutgers University.
