Arielle, a student at the Harvard Kennedy School, seeks to dedicate her career to reforming America’s long-term services and supports system (LTSS), with the objective of ensuring every older adult has access to high-quality, affordable care. Arielle has pursued an academic pathway at the crossroads of her interest in health care delivery, public policy, and biomedical research. Arielle has grown those interests outside the classroom, helping to shape federal and state health policy through her work with the US Ways and Means Health Subcommittee, US Senate Special Committee on Aging, and Massachusetts Department of Public Health Legislative Affairs team. To effectuate change, Arielle draws on her extensive leadership experiences, serving as the Student Body President at Tufts University, the Curator and Lead Organizer of TEDxTufts, and the Founder of The Legacy Project, Inc, a nonprofit dedicated to connecting college students and older adults to build intergenerational connections.
