Lillian Connors is originally from Beverly, Massachusetts and attends Boston College, where she is majoring in political science and minoring in history. Her academic focus has been on a well-rounded and multidisciplinary study of the socio-political challenges our country faces today and how those problems can be traced backward in history. As an avid listener of podcasts ranging from the news to cultural myths, she is passionate about making important issues easily accessible, understandable, and engaging. She is excited to begin her work with the ACE team and bring complicated issues forward in a digestible and informative way. At Boston College, she is a part of a group called 4Boston. She volunteers every week at a community resource center where she helps clients fill out applications for government programs and learns about the challenges of living in and around Boston. In her spare time, Lillian enjoys spending time with her family and walking her dog Moshup.
