Khushi Afre
Founder & Policy Coach (2018-current)
I'm currently a senior at Northview High School, captain of the varsity division of policy debate. Over the summer of 2018, I was accepted to and trained at the top lab at the Spartan Debate Institute at Michigan State University, one of the most intensive four-week debate camps in the nation. I spent the summer of 2019 and 2020 at the Race 'Kritikal' Scholars camp at Wake Forest University. I've been ranked #20 on the UM Coaches Poll, a ranking of the best partnerships in the country by the best coaches in the country. Currently, with 4 bids to the Tournament of Champions, I rank #3 in line for the Baker Award, which is awarded to the best policy partnership in the world!
