Currently, I consult on several cool projects, such as this six-year project<\/a> on guided pathways in rural community colleges; I am the K-12 subject matter expert.<\/p>\n

Previously, I did outreach, engagement, and partnership work for a variety of organizations, such as the Alliance for Excellent Education<\/a>. Before that, I did business development for JumpRope<\/a>, an ed tech company with a grade book built for schools and districts focused on standards-based teaching and learning.<\/p>\n
