Ph.D. student, Information School
GO-MAP research assistant
In celebration of Black History Month, the University of Washington salutes Khatsini Simani. Khatsini wants to empower people with tools for financial literacy. A former McNair Scholar, she’s connecting that passion with research as a Ph.D. student in information science. We’re proud of Khatsini and the UW McNair Scholars Program’s 20-year legacy of preparing underrepresented minority, first-generation and low-income students for doctoral studies.
