Meet Hilda Hernández-Gravelle
Hilda Hernández-Gravelle, founder and principal consultant, leverages a diverse background and clinical, academic, and administrative expertise to offer clients insights for a host of consulting engagements. Dr. Hernández-Gravelle earned an undergraduate degree in education from her native Puerto Rico, a Master of Social Work from Simmons, and a Doctorate in Higher Education Administration, Planning, and Social Policy from Harvard.
