Biography
Ruchi Ramamurthy was a dual JD/MPP candidate at Northeastern University School of Law and Tufts Graduate School of Arts and Science. Prior to attending law school, she worked as the Alachua County regional organizer for Planned Parenthood of South, East, and North Florida, where she led electoral work, grassroots organization and advocacy, and reproductive health education. Ramamurthy hopes to continue this work by focusing on the intersection between racial and reproductive justice and drafting effective policies to combat the disparities that result from discrimination in health care.

Currently, she pursues these values through involvement at Northeastern University School of Law’s chapters of the National Lawyers Guild, Women’s Law Caucus, and If/When/How: Lawyering for Reproductive Justice. This summer, Ramamurthy will be interning in the office of State Representative Liz Miranda.
