Meredith Ragno

Alumni Update:

Meredith is currently living in Brooklyn, NY where she lead sales and marketing at Soko, a social enterprise startup that uses technology to empower artisan entrepreneurs in Kenya. After almost two years in NYC, she’ll be moving to San Francisco in June, where she’ll continue her work at Soko. She looks forward to returning to Africa this fall to work with their team in Nairobi (and meeting their inaugural PiAf Fellow!).

Fellow Bio:

Meredith graduated with majors in Public Policy and International Comparative Studies with an Africa concentration. A native Californian from Palo Alto, she is proud to have also called Boulder, Paris, New York City, and Durham, NC home over the past four years. At Duke, Meredith served on the honor board of her sorority, Delta Gamma, and dabbled in West African dance and Afro-Cuban percussion. A former intern at a peanut butter company, she is excited to add the African Cashew Alliance to the list of nutty places she’s worked. Meredith looks forward to the next year of exploring a new culture, eating lots of mango, and dancing on many of Ghana’s beaches.
