“Our students are passionate, thoughtful, professional educators. Their energy and commitment to life-long education is inspiring. My job is to help them think about their teaching, work towards goals they set for themselves, and assist them in creating innovative schools and educational programs. I draw on my own experience teaching in public schools and my ongoing hands-on work with educators to stay current with challenges that our students face.”
