Nesley Bravo

Senior Manager of Education Strategy

As Sr. Manager of Education Strategy, Nesley (she/her) supports the building of equitable school supports for Black and Brown students, so they are more equipped to achieve their post-secondary goals. Her commitment to this work began as a first-generation college student at the University of Washington supporting other students from similar backgrounds with college access and persistence. Nesley received her Master of Social Work degree with a focus in Integrative Education Practices & Systems from Washington University in St. Louis. Since then, her experiences have included working in multiple sectors, from higher ed to corporate, to increase access and improve the experience of underrepresented students and employees. When not at work, you can find Nesley adjunct lecturing at UW, outdoors moving her body, or on her next travel adventure with her partner & two dogs. As a foodie, Nesley’s favorite places in the Road Map Project region are restaurants, so please send recs her way!
