 Dear Esteemed Colleagues,

With great enthusiasm and honor, I extend my warmest congratulations and thanks to each of you for electing me as the 2024-2025 Chair of the Graduate Student Council for the American Educational Research Association (AERA, GSC). I am truly humbled by your trust and confidence in me. I am thrilled to embark on this incredible journey together as we strive to advance education research and scholarship to new heights as graduate students.

AERA has long been at the forefront of educational excellence, fostering innovation and promoting evidence-based practices that empower educators and learners alike. As Chair, my foremost commitment is to build upon past Chairs, our rich legacy, and our esteemed association while working collaboratively with all of you to shape the future of education research.

As we embark on this journey and The Annual Meeting taking place from April 23-27, 2025, in Denver, Colorado, I encourage you to actively participate and engage in AERA's initiatives, events, and committees. Your contributions are invaluable, and your dedication to education research propels us forward. Together, we will be the architects of change and the catalysts for progress.

Please do not hesitate to share your thoughts, ideas, and aspirations with the GSC. Your input is vital in steering how the GSC can help support graduate student members of AERA.

Thank you once again for this tremendous opportunity to lead our esteemed committee. Together, let us champion the cause of education research, empower educators, inspire learners, and drive positive change that will reverberate for future generations.

With great excitement and a strong sense of purpose,
