Staff Profile

Anna Nelson
Hello Hamline!
I am the new Special Education Social Worker at Hamline this year.
A little bit about me: I just moved to Minnesota from Northern California. I have a BA in Child Development from Mills College and an MSW from UCLA. I have been working with kids and families in lots of different capacities for the past 16 years, but this position is my first time working in a school, and I'm very excited about that!
I have a daughter, two dogs, and an elderly cat. I love writing, photography, hiking, gardening, cooking, and eating yummy food.
I am so looking forward to getting to know all of the students and families at Hamline this year, and truly delighted to support students in developing their social and emotional skills.
