I am deeply committed to a career as a Professional Learning Manager and Lead. With over 25 years of combined experience as both a classroom teacher and school principal, I have dedicated my career to improving learning and teaching - work that closely aligns with thoughtful and innovative ways, unlocking the innate curiosity, creativity and desire for knowledge that all learners possess. Throughout my career, I have worked at the intersection of instruction, leadership, and implementation. As a teacher, I understood firsthand the importance of high-quality, engaging curriculum and innovation that challenges students to think deeply and creatively. As a principal, I was responsible for evaluating, adopting, and supporting curriculum and innovative supports across ELA, math, and science, ensuring that curricula and digital learning tools met the diverse needs of students while equipping teachers with creative and practical data-informed tools. This dual perspective allows me to speak authentically to both educators and decision-makers about what works in real classrooms and school systems. The commitment to providing simple, intuitive ways for educators and students to teach and learn more effectively while also addressing the social-emotional impact of learning, strongly resonates with my views and professional experience. I have led professional learning around curriculum implementation and innovative tools and pathways, supported teachers in using assessment data to drive targeted instruction, and partnered with district stakeholders to ensure instructional coherence and student growth. These experiences have prepared me well to contribute to a customer focused learning company by translating product value into meaningful, educator-centered conversations. I am particularly inspired by serving students globally and a focus on empowering educators with accessible tools that respond to the needs of every learner. I bring credibility built over decades in education, the ability to build trust with educators, and a passion for helping schools successfully adopt and sustain impactful instructional solutions.
