What I'm looking for

I’m looking for EdTech, curriculum, or remote coaching roles where I can apply adult learning facilitation, data-driven coaching, and standards-based curriculum design to deliver measurable student and educator outcomes.

I’m a turnaround education leader with 10 years in the classroom and 6 years as an instructional coach and school-based leader, driving measurable outcomes in high-need schools. I built and led a novice team that moved school-wide science proficiency from the 25th to 30th state percentile in one year, and I advanced student reading informational text proficiency from 51% to 83% (+32 pts) in a single year.

I’m expert in adult learning facilitation, data-driven coaching, curriculum design (ADDIE), and professional development—pairing instructional feedback, standards alignment, and MTSS/intervention systems to accelerate on-level and ESE growth. I’ve led school-wide High Reliability Schools (HRS) implementation (earned Level 1 & Level 2 certification), served as Gifted Chair, earned nationally recognized fellowships (Noyce Master Teaching Fellow; New Leaders National Aspiring Principals Fellow), and authored educator-training materials for MIT Teaching Systems Lab.
