CEO-Level Education & EdTech Leader
Scaling impact and redesigning education systems to meet the needs of every student.
I work at the intersection of education, leadership, and innovation - helping organizations scale their impact while rethinking how education systems are designed to serve students. My work is focused on two core challenges:
Board & Advisory
I work with boards and leadership teams to help organizations align strategy, strengthen execution, and scale impact.
Speaking
I speak to education leaders, nonprofit executives, and cross-sector audiences on leadership, innovation, and scaling impact.
Executive Leadership
I’m open to conversations about CEO, President, and senior leadership roles aligned with mission-driven impact and system-level change.
