Welcome Brian Robinson to Advance CTE!

My name is Brian Robinson and I am incredibly excited to join the Advance CTE team! In my capacity as a policy associate, I will be supporting several ongoing initiatives including supporting Advance CTE’s work to improve the use and quality of CTE data. and exploring the reach and impact of area technical centers across the country. I will also manage our Learning That Works Resource Center and our CTE Research Review Blog.

My work in education is centered around equity in access and opportunity, particularly for low-income, Black and Latinx students. I began my career in education as an elementary school teacher, first in Prince George’s County, Maryland, then in Washington, D.C., and later Fairfax County, Virginia. Recognizing the need for practitioners in the education policy and research space, I left the classroom to pursue my doctorate degree in education policy and leadership at New York University. Currently, I am working to complete my dissertation researching inequitable access to high-quality schools in Washington, D.C. For this research, I am examining how parents across racial, geographic and economic status experience school choice in Washington, D.C.

I am originally from Charm City — aka Baltimore, MD — home of the Maryland crab cake, old bay seasoning, and the Baltimore Ravens! In my personal life I enjoy running, spending time with friends and family, cooking and community service.
