A two time Hopkins alumnus and Baltimore native, Akaia is passionate about helping prospective and current students navigate their educational journeys. As a first-generation college student, Akaia understands how overwhelming and uncertain the financial aid process can feel. With a background in public health, she has an interest in advancing equity in financial aid and helping students understand the resources and options available to them.

Throughout her time as a student at Hopkins, she remained connected to her community and engaged in opportunities to pursue her passion for helping the youth. She believes that financial circumstances should never be a barrier to pursuing education, and is committed to helping students feel supported and empowered throughout their college journeys. Outside of work she enjoys visiting national parks, attending concerts, and reading mystery novels.
