Ipsit Shah

Scholastic Associate

Ipsit grew up in an underserved area, and moved to California later in his life. Here, he noticed the vast difference of the educational systems. Ipsit's passion for providing students with access to a proper education grew. He created his own nonprofit, Breaking Barriers, to provide school supplies to poorly funded schools in India. After transferring to UC Berkeley, Ipsit continues his commitment of contributing to the educational reform by teaching at elementary schools in the San Francisco Bay Area.
