Yvette

Yvette Mohbashi  studied Gender Studies and Law before becoming a secondary school teacher in her community and cofounding Bright Minds Africa. As Director of Bright Minds, Yvette manages all our projects, ensures positive relationships with the community, hires and oversees new staff, and keeps our operations in tune with our mission. She loves witnessing positive transformation in the communities we support and takes pride in Bright Minds' impact on individual children and families, from helping a malnourished child achieve a healthy weight to providing a scholarship to a girl who once believed she could never attend school. Yvette's kindness, integrity, and passion for positive change shine through in everything she does. By leading Bright Minds, she hopes to inspire young girls to believe that leadership is not only for men.
