Meixi is a Hokchiu daughter-sister-scholar, learning scientist, former middle school math teacher from Singapore who also grew up with Lahu community in northern Thailand. Growing up navigating languages and knowledge systems across mangrove forests and highland mountains, Meixi’s work is centered on an enduring concern: how can schools contribute to the collective livelihoods and future wellbeing of Indigenous young people, families, and the lands and waters where they live? Her pursuit of this question interweaves comparative education with learning sciences, and through studying micro-moments of interaction in relation to macro-global sociopolitical and ecological phenomena. For over the past decade, Meixi has worked with teachers, families, and young people to design Indigenous-led public schools from within Indigenous relationalities and theories of learning in the Mekong, Upper Mississippi, and México. Meixi is centrally interested in studying the cultural, historical, political, ethical, and poetic dimensions of human learning and development as people move and meet across place towards more just and thriving socioecological futures. They are actively involved in designing intergenerational land-based learning systems that strengthen one’s ethical commitments to each other and the rest of the living world, and developing relational methodologies such as family storywalks and trans-Indigenous design research. Meixi earned her Ph.D. in Learning Sciences and Human Development from the University of Washington and her B.S. in Education and Social Policy at Northwestern University. She is currently an Assistant Professor in Comparative and International Education Development in the department of Organizational Leadership, Policy and Development at the University of Minnesota.
