Ana Maria Pavić is the Communications Assistant at the Center for Digital Thriving.

Ana Maria’s interest in digital well-being grew out of her work with children across a variety of educational and youth-focused settings, from serving as an assistant teacher and youth mentor to coaching sports. She has also built communications experience across diverse sectors, including the Connecticut State Department of Education, the early childhood research nonprofit Child Trends, and political campaigns.

As a communications professional, she loves amplifying youth voices and sharing stories that highlight people’s lived experiences.

When she’s not crafting content, you can find Ana Maria snowboarding, thrifting, or searching for the best matcha café with friends.
