Nina R. Y. Blau

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Public Administration at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, North Carolina. My research areas of interest include governance networks and inclusion. Specifically, I’m interested in why certain types of organizations are included in governance networks and what that means for network outcomes.

Prior to working toward my Ph.D., I received my Master of Public Administration degree from Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut. It is at this university that I discovered the field of public administration while working as a grants manager.

In my free time, I enjoy working on crochet or other crafty projects, spending time with my wonderful husband, and visiting family in New England.
