Along with her many other community involvements, Hasina Mohyuddin joined the PENCIL board in 2016. Professionally, she’s the assistant dean of equity, diversity and inclusion at Vanderbilt’s Peabody College, and the insight and expertise she shares with the university informs her work with PENCIL.
As a Metro Nashville Public Schools graduate and parent, Hasina knows the fantastic work that MNPS is doing in the community, but she also understands the challenges they face. Being involved with PENCIL allows her to support MNPS in ways she never thought possible. “It was not until I joined the PENCIL board that I truly began to realize the extent of the work that PENCIL does and the impact of that work on MNPS,” she says. “They are a trusted partner and work collaboratively to bring key stakeholders together in support of public education.”
In her five years on the board, Hasina has been active in PENCIL in a multitude of roles, including serving on the Program and Development Committees, acting as board secretary and, currently, chairing the Virtual Partnerships Committee, a new virtual learning and interning initiative that was started in response to the pandemic. Her colleagues appreciate her gentle and thoughtful approach to every project PENCIL takes on, and they recognize how indispensable she is to the nonprofit.
