Educator & designer reimagining education.

[email protected] · +1 (614) 588-6100 Based in Columbus, Ohio with my partner, four fluffy cats, and a really cute dog.

I’m fixated on reimagining education to meet the needs of students: creating equitable, authentic, and relationship-centered experiences where students can flourish and we can build a better world, together.

I’m interested in partnering with teams who center systemic change and justice over improving the status quo.
