HELLO,

welcome to my online portfolio.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my professional website. I have been an advocate for youth development and equitable education for more than thirty years, 
​
My experiences in education are broad. I have been responsible for teaching undergraduate and graduate courses (traditional and online), admissions, academic advising, community outreach, directing an Upward Bound program, student activities, programming, campus climate assessment, and setting campus policy on diversity and civility. I have managed personnel, office budgets, and strategic plans. I have also taught 5th - 8th graders math and science at a private urban school serving students identified as "at-risk."
​
Throughout my career, I have been a leader in resolving conflicts with discretion, assessing campus climate, developing and implementing services, programs, and policies, and building collaborative relationships with community stakeholders.
​
My expertise and advocacy are preparing students for college and facilitating students to access and achieve academic success. I have done so by effectively using social emotional learning (SEL) and restorative strategies; using identity development to facilitate academic achievement; advocating for equity, diversity & inclusion while being a trauma-informed and healing-centered practitioner.
