Early Life & Education
Dr. Ansu Sonii was born in Monrovia, Liberia, where he developed a passion for education at an early age. He pursued his undergraduate studies at the University of Liberia, earning a degree in Education with honors.
His quest for knowledge took him abroad where he obtained a Master's degree in Educational Leadership from Harvard University and later a Ph.D. in Higher Education Administration from Stanford University.
Vision for Education
