Alisa Tchernigova

Senior Programs Assistant

Alisa has been working in higher education since 2013 in various administrative roles. She believes that there is a huge necessity for more women in leadership as well as a basic understanding of what leadership means and looks like, which is why she came to work for the Center.

Alisa graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Lehman College. While at Lehman, she was inducted into the Golden Key Honor Society, Psi Chi - the International Honor Society in Psychology, and the Phi Beta Kappa Society. In her pursuit to see more women as leaders, Alisa continued on to graduate from Manhattan College with a Master of Science degree in Organizational Leadership. She hopes to use this degree to help other women realize their potential while expanding on her own. In her spare time she volunteers for Anjellicle Cats Rescue, and is a strong supporter of the “Adopt, Don’t Shop” movement.
