My Story
As a Research, Evaluation and Curriculum Consultant, I lead the development of digital literacy training materials that empower learners and instructors alike. My work focuses on ensuring that all digital learning materials are high-quality, accessible, and learner-centered. With a Ph.D. in Urban Education, Leadership, and Policy from the University of Massachusetts Boston, I bring a research-informed approach to educational equity and community empowerment. My doctoral work focused on understanding the systemic barriers that prevent underserved communities from accessing quality education and digital resources. Throughout my career, I have held leadership positions at UMass Boston, NYU, and various community organizations, always with a focus on creating inclusive learning environments and supporting student success. I believe that education is the most powerful tool we have for transforming communities and creating lasting change.
