She holds a bilingual master of business administration from the Instituto de Estudios Superiores de la Empresa (IESE) in Barcelona, Spain, and a bachelor’s in ancient Greek from Wellesley College. Prior to coming to Northeastern, Gill was Executive Vice President at Root Capital, a social enterprise that provides financing and advisory services to rural businesses in Latin America, Africa, and Asia.
