As a leading expert on data in the international education industry, I help schools and educators make sense of their data and turn it into information that informs effective decision-making. 

I have worked with awesome clients such as:

• Bedford Public Schools 
• Singapore American School
• Yongsan International School Seoul 
• Dallas Independent Schools
• Ferndale School District

I have coached and trained over 300 educators through my online synchronous and self-paced courses. 

A lot of what I do is lead teams through data literacy, data visualization, and dashboard design workshops for organizations like AppsEvents and 21st Century Learning International using Google Workspace tools such as Google Sheets and Looker Studio.

Starting as an elementary classroom teacher for 17 years, I moved into an educational technology coaching role and eventually found myself helping others be more efficient with their work around data analysis and data literacy. I’ve worked hard to get a master’s in educational leadership from California State University, data science certification from Harvard Business School, and data visualization certification from Cornell University. 

When not jamming out on spreadsheet formulas and chart elements, I can be found ascending punchy climbs and bombing down drops in the jungle on my full-suspension mountain bike.
