My Story

But my journey isn’t just about academic success—it's about breaking barriers. My leadership philosophy centers on thinking differently, challenging conventions, and empowering others to do the same.

With over 15 years of experience in education and a unique perspective shaped by both triumphs and trials, I’m committed to inspiring others to push boundaries and create lasting change.

When I’m not leading, speaking, or consulting, you’ll find me exploring my love of music, creating content on social media, or working on my upcoming book about AI in school leadership.
