About Franziska

I am an Austrian native with socialized American enthusiasm (and volume). I have focused my life around two goals as a result: overcoming an unpronounceable nickname and understanding the institutions that shape quality of life and how their design and impact have changed in the digital age.

My path includes studying International Relations in Scotland and Paris, building mobile-phone charging stations for Refugee camps in Greece, growing a Student-think tank network in the UK, playing Lacrosse for the Austrian National Team in the World Cup and European Championships, and teaching Yoga (less “Om” more “Oomph”). Before Oxford, I worked in San Francisco as part of LinkedIn's leadership program. I learned how technology promotes access to economic opportunity and saw the underbelly of innovation. I empowered the voices of those left behind in Silicon Valley as a local activist, inner-city youth coach, and relationship abuse educator.

I'm at Oxford to learn how to do my part to realize a practice of innovation that empowers all rather than enriches few. Along the way, I want to continue to empower students to understand the world around them and reach their academic goals.

About the lesson

I know firsthand that exam preparation and school work are stressful, but also that they are incredibly exciting opportunities to help you get to where you want to go in your career and academic endeavors. I’ve applied and gotten accepted to top-tier US colleges, UK and French universities, competitive jobs, leadership programs and premier graduate institutions. Every experience has convinced me that the difference comes from being authentic and exercising critical thought. It's not about what you know or don't know, it's about how you approach thinking through challenges.

Wherever you set your hopes, we’ll prepare you as someone who can think through wide-ranging questions with a critical approach and authentic voice. qualified and genuine candidate who will make exceptional use of the opportunities you pursue. My goal is for you to be able to respond to questions with confidence that comes not from subject-mater expertise, but from your ability to think critically about wide-ranging issues, and to communicate that logic in your authentic voice.

This is achieved through on-going sessions that are structured as free-flowing conversations around broad themes. I provide guidance in readings and material to cover, but rely on you to set the focus of the sessions based on your interests and development areas. The sessions move from exploring case-studies that represent historical and political themes, to working through how you would answer specific prompts.
