Hannah Eli

Hannah Eli works in the DC Mayor's Office of Racial Equity at the nexus of racial equity, technology, and government to ensure that, as Dr. Ruha Benjamin said, we do not rely on “rusty value judgements embedded in shiny new systems.” She has experience working with teams in federal government and higher education to evaluate their data collection and analysis methodologies for equity and data fidelity. As a policy and data analyst with the Office of Racial Equity (ORE), Hannah collaborates with agency staff to think critically about how they capture and use race and ethnicity information about the residents they serve.
