Dr. Kubi is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow excited to be working with Dr. Bart-Plange on the Ghanaian Women's Socialization Study. She graduated with a Ph.D. in Education and Psychology from the University of Michigan. Her research focuses on Black girls’ and women’s intersectional awareness of misogynoir as it interlocks with other forms of oppression; their self-definition and/or meaning-making; and the reimagination of schooling to better cultivate young Black people’s sociopolitical and identity development, particularly through university-school partnerships. She is excited to lend these lines of inquiry a more globalized lens, investigating Black femininity in the U.S., Ghana and West Africa, and across the diaspora.
She graduated with a B.S. in Human Development and minors in Inequality Studies and Education from Cornell University in 2020, after participating in the Summer Undergraduate Research Program at the University of Virginia’s School of Education and Human Development. While at Cornell, she was a Program for Research on Youth Development and Engagement Scholar (PRYDE). In 2022, she earned an M.S. in Psychology from the University of Michigan, as well as a graduate certificate in African American and Diasporic Studies.
