Hi there! My name is Alysha Johnson Williams and I am so excited to start my sixth year as a Resident Tutor in Quincy! I graduated from Harvard in 2014 and I’ve been a proud Penguin since Housing Day 2011. I graduated in 2020 with a Master’s degree in Higher Education from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. By day, I serve as the Director of Pathways to Practice at the Center for Public Service and Engaged Scholarship and I’m always happy to talk about public service opportunities on campus and public interest careers. As an undergraduate, I was involved with PBHA and was a member of the Varsity Track and Field Team. More importantly, I managed our beloved Quincy Grille. Since graduation, I’ve worked for an education consulting firm in Boston and a charter school network in New York City. I love to bake and I am always around to chat about school, careers, Michigan, IM volleyball, and Grey’s Anatomy over oven-fresh treats. You can find me, my wonderful husband Rakim, and our precious cat Buttons in New Quincy 600!
