I am an education consultant, specifically focusing on Multicultural Education (ME). ME is a framework that addresses education from an equity and Civil Rights standpoint. I am comfortable taking groups through difficult conversations and know that highly effective communication is where equity starts. Even with seemingly disparate roles, equity is the centripetal force keeping it all together. Additionally, I am a proud community organizer in Bridgeport, CT, working specifically with low-income public housing residents at PT Partners – a grassroots organizing initiative. I graduated from Texas A&M University with a Doctor of Philosophy in Curriculum and Instruction with a specific focus on Urban Education. I was a graduate Diversity Fellow during her time at Texas A&M and an advisor for an undergraduate student group with a focus on urban education. My current research focuses on education policy and practice using a qualitative lens, with a specific focus on Participatory Action Research.
Listed skills include Volunteer Management, Youth Development, Program Development, Nonprofits, and 19 others.
