Hey there! My name is Ananya Hariharan and I’m a graduate student in Political Science at UCLA. I study corporate advocacy on social policies with an eye toward how that advocacy shapes policies that strengthen racialization within the United States. I’m also an affiliate of UCLA’s Voting Rights Project.
In my free time, I like throwing dinner parties, taking pilates classes, going on long walks with my headphones on, reading science fiction, and hanging out with my cats. In another life I think I’d probably be a veterinarian.
