AI literacy educator and senior tech coordinator driving digital equity through measurable, data-informed learning programs.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m an AI literacy educator and program leader focused on advancing digital equity for justice-impacted and underserved communities. I design and deliver high-impact learning programs that produce measurable outcomes, including a 66% increase in course completion rates and the launch of the first AI classes inside a New York State prison and NYC jail.
In my current role, I lead AI literacy and digital skills programming across reentry, community, and transitional housing sites, serving hundreds of adult learners annually. I’ve designed and facilitated 80+ learning experiences, improved program workflows, and helped drive a 110% increase in completed technology assessments through data-informed planning and continuous improvement, while managing grant compliance and reporting.
Previously, I expanded multi-site digital skills initiatives by delivering instruction to 200+ learners and growing partner sites from 2 to 5. I also bring a strong technical support foundation from serving as a Desktop Support Specialist (including Bloomberg Terminal environments) and an equity-centered case management background from managing a 60+ client caseload—so I blend practical technology fluency with culturally responsive, learner-first instruction.
