Consulting

I can assist with any K-16 arts, media, technology, or innovative educational endeavor!

My passion is educational systems change. I want to support educational institutions, e.g. schools, districts, states, to make major leaps in substantive, measurable progress for the benefit of all students. I believe that with a few key changes in mindsets, understandings, organizational shifts, and methods, most educational institutions can rapidly begin to experience positive results.
