As an educational leader with over 20 years of experience, I've dedicated my career to empowering educators and inspiring student success. My journey began in the classroom, where I discovered my passion for instructional strategies that truly make a difference. Since then, I've transitioned into leadership roles, where I've had the privilege of coaching teachers, developing curricula, and driving school improvement initiatives that have tangible, lasting impacts. I am the owner of Diverse Learning Practices Education, a educational consulting company. I am also the founder of L.E.A.D, leadership excellence and direction, which focuses on empowering leadership skills in youth and young adults.I’m a firm believer in the power of data-driven decision-making and innovative solutions. Whether I’m leading professional development sessions, integrating technology into the classroom, or working one-on-one with educators, my goal is always the same: to build teacher capacity and enhance student outcomes. I thrive on challenges and am known for my ability to turn complex problems into actionable solutions.My experience has also extended beyond the classroom into the business side of education. As a successful entrepreneur, I am confident in my ability to build strong relationships with clients and deliver results that exceed expectations. I’m proud to have been featured in Bold Magazine for my leadership and entrepreneurial success, and I continue to seek out new opportunities to grow and learn.Outside of work, I’m passionate about staying on the cutting edge of educational trends and sharing my knowledge through speaking engagements and publications. My book, "So You Think You Can Coach? 10 Instructional Plays That Build Teacher Capacity," is a testament to my commitment to supporting educators in their professional growth.I’m always open to connecting with fellow educators, leaders, and innovators who share my dedication to making a positive impact in education.
