Alison Lubin
Director of operations
Alison Lubin is the Director of Operations at Motivate Lab. Prior to coming to the University of Virginia, she worked in Connecticut State government and taught middle school science for several years at an Achievement First charter school in New Haven, CT. As a student of both psychology and public administration, Alison understands and appreciates the unique role systems play in supporting or undermining student motivation. She knows there are rarely (if ever) one size fits all solutions to building schools and education systems that are truly designed to support all students.
Alison earned her B.S. in Psychology from Tulane University (go Green Wave!) and Master of Public Administration from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University.
When she’s not thinking about the path to building equitable school systems, you can find her at the yoga studio, the book store, or on a quest to find the perfect slice of pizza.
