Background
My journey has been a celebration of educational diversity and a testament to the transformative power of teaching. From the dynamic classrooms of public schools to the strategic discussions in Washington D.C. for the ESSA, I’ve been at the forefront of pivotal educational movements.
As a key player in Teach Plus, I’ve shaped policies and empowered educators. My voice has resonated at critical technology and social studies conferences, sharing insights drawn from my rich tapestry of experiences.
Now, as a district leader for technology and curriculum, I fuse innovative teaching methods with cutting-edge tools, navigating the complexities of modern education. In collaboration with peers, we explore the vital role of public education and its cultural heartbeat.
My path has been diverse: from Assistant Principal in District 89 to Instructional Technology Coach, and now as a district administrator, I bridge technology and curriculum, shaping the future of education. As an Adjunct Professor and a member of Trinity International University’s council, I’ve nurtured the next generation of educators.
Through my writings for Times 10 Publications and contributions to the American Consortium for Equity in Education, I extend my reach, sparking conversations and igniting change in the educational landscape.
Join me on this continuous odyssey of learning and leading in education – a journey illuminated by insights, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
