Dr. Hollie Mackey (Northern Cheyenne) is an Associate Professor of Educational Leadership at North Dakota State University. She recently served as the Executive Director of the White House Initiative on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity for Native Americans and Strengthening Tribal Colleges and Universities.

As an experienced policy consultant, public speaker, program evaluator, and community educator, she seeks to use her experiential knowledge as an enrolled member of the Northern Cheyenne nation coupled with her research, teaching, and service experience to bridge theory and practice as a means of addressing complex social issues from an interdisciplinary perspective.
