Meet the Team

Engelina is a second year at the University of Chicago studying Public Policy and Cognitive Science. Passionate about the intersection between behavior and policy, she’s interested in how people’s backgrounds and experiences shape their decisions, and how understanding those decisions can consequently be utilized in creating policies that target and solve the root of problems.

Prior to She Should Run, Engelina spent a lot of time volunteering and engaging with her community, and started an organization for student musicians to challenge themselves to face their fears with performance anxiety and leadership.

In her free time, Engelina enjoys reading, playing piano and viola, going on walks, lamenting the passage of time, and trying new things!
