WHAT SHE DOES

Mentor and inspire current and future educational leaders, nonprofit leaders, and individuals by advancing racial literacy, equity, social justice, fairness, and curriculum integration through the following approaches:

  • Apply Dr. James Banks's "To Know, To Care, To Act" framework alongside implicit bias assessments to address instructional needs and promote reflective practice

  • Design and facilitate professional learning sessions using tools and expertise tailored to each participant's identified needs

  • Build connections between instructional methods and culturally responsive practices to strengthen relevance and engagement

  • Provide post-session follow-up and coaching to track progress, reinforce strategies, and sustain long-term learning

  • Equip educators to recognize and address micro-aggressions, micro-invalidations, and micro-insults in curriculum and school communities, particularly those impacting students of color

  • Train teachers and administrators in evidence-based best practices for selecting equitable, culturally responsive instructional materials

  • Collect and maintain accurate data to evaluate impact and ensure improved outcomes for all students

AREAS OF SPECIALTY

​

  • Foster an environment of inclusivity in schools, classrooms, and communities through implementation of the MTSS framework, open and honest dialogue, and the shaping of leaders and teacher attitudes and mindsets toward cultural responsive teaching.

  • Establish a comprehensive anti-racism framework that addresses implicit bias and stereotypes while advancing anti-racist practices

  • Collaborate with families and community organizations to ensure appropriate placement for students with special needs

  • Provide leadership development and train-the-trainer programs to promote equitable outcomes

  • Develop a multicultural curriculum to close the achievement gap

  • Cultivate school-community partnerships that engage parents, guardians, and the community in promoting high expectations and student success

  • Implement strategic planning to shift from a compliance mindset to one of equitable access for all

  • What changed: opened with a bolded action verb to match the pattern from your other pages, tightened the lead sentence so the three approaches (MTSS, dialogue, mindset-shaping) read as parallel rather than a run-on list, standardized punctuation across bullets, and swapped "eliminate the achievement gap" for "close the achievement gap" closing is the measurable, ongoing action; eliminate reads as a one-time claim that's harder to stand behind.
