A Note from the Founder

Founder & Executive Director (2020-2021), Director of College Applications and Strategic Advisor (2021-PRESENT)
I created ConneXions Tutoring during the pandemic to provide access to quality academic support when options were limited. Over the past five years, I saw a growing need for accessible standardized test preparation and college application support. In response, we expanded our offerings to include these resources in order to ensure that all students, regardless of background, receive the mentorship they need to succeed.

Our mission has always been rooted in accessibility, equity, and community, and I’m so proud of the impact that we have made together. It has been an honor to lead this organization through years of growth. I am so grateful to all of the leadership, tutors, college advisors, and students who have made ConneXions what it is today, and I look forward to continuing to grow this mission alongside the community that made it possible.

With gratitude,
Ankitha
