The Resilient Leader

My services focus on building resilient leaders who can weather any storm, overcome any obstacle, and come out stronger on the other side.

I’ll provide you with practical tools and strategies to help you develop the resilience you need to overcome challenges and achieve your goals whether you are facing a crisis or simply looking to enhance your leadership skills. My experience ranges from educational settings pre-kindergarten to higher education, government, media, and the political arena.

Unleashing Their Superpowers

As an inclusive education consultant, I partner with schools to cultivate thriving, student-centered learning environments. My work focuses on meeting students where they are, embracing their diverse backgrounds, and fostering belonging. Crucially, I prioritize elevating student voice to inform school and district development. I help educators develop culturally responsive teaching, design inclusive curricula, and foster empathy, incorporating student feedback. I also champion multilingualism, supporting English language learners and home language development, ensuring student voices are heard in language support strategies. My goal is to empower schools to celebrate diversity and multilingualism, driven by student insights.

College Access and Affordability

Our services improve student access to higher education. Bridging the high school-college-career gap requires strategies providing viable options, navigating federal aid complexities, and offering clear guidance for students and families. We partner with schools and districts to develop comprehensive support systems, including: personalized advising exploring post-secondary pathways; workshops demystifying the FAFSA and financial aid; and communication strategies keeping families informed throughout the college application process. Our goal is to empower students and families with the knowledge and resources needed for successful higher education transitions and career attainment. Spanish workshops available.

Executive Mentoring and Coaching

Individualized coaching and group mentoring provide targeted support tailored to specific problems of practice and leadership challenges. This personalized approach is designed to cultivate high-performing leaders who can effectively navigate the complexities of today’s challenging educational environment. Our coaching and mentoring services go beyond generic leadership training, delving into the unique context of each leader’s situation. We work closely with individuals and teams to identify their strengths, address areas for growth, and develop concrete strategies for improvement. Whether it’s refining instructional leadership skills, building collaborative teams, or navigating complex policy changes, our coaching and mentoring programs provide the personalized guidance and support necessary to empower leaders and drive positive change within their organizations.

Raise the Bar

A major component of improving outcomes for students required a conscious effort to Raise the Bar in education—from addressing inequities to innovating for all students, increasing mental health supports, strengthening the teaching profession, to promoting multilingualism and career pathways, to increasing affordability and accessibility in higher education. These supports would be tailored to the needs of the community and will benefit from the years of guidance, technical assistance, and research that drove efforts at the national level.
