OUR PARTNERS

The Partners that bring it all together

Because it is my choice, I work with only the best! My collaborative partners you see below have been working most of their careers on BIPOC and Indigenous issues in the K-12 or Non-Profit Landscape. These are individuals who understand that the greatest impact we can have in this world, and especially this country, is to strive toward equity in our work and in our daily lives.
Whenever I am contracted for a project, I think of the smartest advisors and collaborators for specific tasks within the project. Yes, it is quality control, but it is also blending positive knowledge and ideas to create a holistic path forward.
Please contact me any time to have a free conversation about your organization’s needs!

I have been a Mild/Moderate Special Education teacher for 22 years in the Denver Public Schools.  Currently, I am the Senior Team Lead and Special Education teacher at Place Bridge Academy.  As a Senior Team Lead, I spend about half of my time at the school as an Instructional Coach for the other Special Education teachers at the school.  My current school has five other Special Education teachers, three of them are Mild/Moderate teachers and the other two are teachers for Center based programming.  One program is for students with Autism in grades 3-5, and the other center program is a Multi-Intensive class for students in grades 6-8.  Place Bridge Academy is home to the Denver Public Schools “Newcomer” program for students that are new to the country and English is not their first language.
