Bio
Anna advises CAS and SOE undergraduate and graduate students on a variety of career topics, such as choosing a major or career path, identifying and evaluating job or internship opportunities, and writing an effective resume or cover letter. She also helps students to develop networking skills, practice interviewing and salary negotiations, as well as clarify their interests, personality preferences and work values through career related self-assessments, including the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and Strong Interest Inventory.

In her advising, Anna draws on her prior career counseling experience with community organizations, as well as on many years of professional work as a language instructor, translator/interpreter, educator, and researcher. Her professional background also includes 10 years at the World Bank as a consultant for projects in education policy, health, and social safety nets in European and Central Asian countries.
