Hi, my name is Naa Kwarley Quartey and I am a senior at Haverford College.

I am a biology major at Bryn Mawr and I am very excited to be wrapping up my undergraduate degree!!!  I am from Ghana, and that is the place where I am happiest. I have worked mostly in the field of medicine - it's been a curious mix of medicine for medicine's sake and social medicine.  I don't know much about education, but have lately spent a great deal of  time talking with my friends and other people I come across (aka doctors in the ghanaian hospitals I have interned at) about what the failures  (and triumphs, if any) of the Ghanaian education system are.  So.... yeah, I look forward to exploring more how the brain works and how we can apply it to our education system, to become better people, better educators.....
