Senior Professional Learning Leader and certified instructional coach with over 13 years in education. Specializing in program consulting, professional coaching, and 'learn-by-doing' professional workshops that offer ready-to-implement strategies for teams and their leaders that lead to transformational learning. Believing in the power of languages and culture to build connections, understanding, and empathy, I advocate for language programs and cross-cultural understanding through active involvement at district-, state-, regional- and national levels. I have led curriculum writing teams and data dives, train-the-trainer sessions, and created in-person, virtual, and asynchronous professional learning using a variety of platforms. With a commitment to transformative adult learning and systems change, I am passionate about changing systems to better support individuals new to the country. I provide training for coaches, mentors, evaluators, educators, and leaders on cross-cultural and content-specific strategies to meet the individualized needs of their multicultural educators.
