Latrina Bowman

Latrina has always been passionate about empowering youth to discover their full potential. Growing up in Baltimore and witnessing the inequalities in the school system from a young age, she realized the benefits of community engagement and non-traditional educational opportunities. Her interest in international education was ignited during her undergraduate career at Gettysburg College when she traveled to Ghana, West Africa for a semester abroad. This transformative experience inspired her to return to a small village in Ghana to lead several community development projects, specifically within the education system. Carrying on her interest in education, she spent years working in various roles in the Baltimore City and Washington D.C.'s public and private school systems. She earned her Master’s from the University of Baltimore in Global Affairs and Human Security with a focus on International Education reform. Most recently, Latrina served as the Academic Advisor and Adjunct Professor at the University of Baltimore where she supported and provided resources for undergraduate and graduate students throughout their academic careers. Latrina joined the LearnServe team in 2021.
