These are the most important things to know about me as a professional and a person.I am a first-generation American who knows first-hand the power of education. That’s why I've spent 20 years exploring education writ broadly, with most of my expertise in higher education.I know the shifting terrain of education and its important role in preparing people for 21st century lives. I have a secret past as a high performance tennis coach, so I care deeply about motivation, strategy, and performance, for myself, for members of my team, and for my clients.I’m deeply experienced in all things analytic, so I make evidence based decisions and encourage others to do so as well.But I’m not a cold hard numbers person. I also understand context. I care about my clients, their history and circumstance, their particular problems, their past and their future. That’s what motivates me to help them find their path forward.
