What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead CTE curriculum and program development, build partnerships, deliver teacher professional development, and expand student career pathways in a collaborative, equity-focused environment.

I am a dynamic educator and Career and Technical Education (CTE) specialist with experience leading district-level instructional improvement, managing CTE programs, and developing inclusive, hands-on learning opportunities. I have led professional development for teachers, managed student data for compliance and strategic planning, and supported local CTE planning and fiscal management.

I have classroom and extracurricular experience in agriscience and environmental education, where I designed curricula, grew student leadership through FFA/FEA advising, and built internship and community partnership programs that increased job placement and engagement. I bring a collaborative, student-centered approach and a demonstrated commitment to empowering learners and strengthening workforce pathways.
