Speaking
I speak from my experience in DC schools, Cornell athletics, and consulting: what it takes to be heard, build belonging, and turn a good idea into something people can use.
In the room
My DCPS talks have included opening remarks at the Summer Leadership Institute, a reflection on student support at the MTSS Leads Institute, and a panel on belonging at the Culture Institute.
For a sense of how I tell my story, listen to my conversation with Michelle and Stephanie on Cornell (thank) U.
