I have been working as a middle school humanities teacher for the past 13 years. I have spent time in project-based student centered charter schools as well as other types of charter schools. I am currently a teacher leader at my school, acting for the second year as the leader of the eighth grade team. I also initiated in a group in my school last year to focus on our schools examination of equity and anti-racism. I am currently leading that group and reaching out to other organizations to support us as well as planning and executing professional development for the faculty at our school. I have been selected by the Boston foundation to give an Ed Talk on my work in this area in May. I am currently thinking about my next steps in my career, considering a move into administration or leadership positions in other organizations that are in the area of education and or equity. I would love to connect with people on both of these options.
