About Jaein

Lee’s research interests focus on institutional practices and supports for first-generation low-income immigrants and students of color, with special focus on undocumented immigrant students. Her recent study explored how undocumented immigrant students demonstrate their agency using non-dominant values and practices while navigating a predominantly white university. As a Data Wise coach, she provides teacher training on how to use data collaboratively to bring equity to instruction and practices in schools, nationally and internationally. Lee is the co-chair of the Data Wise Coach Certification program.
