My current role is the Associate Director of Professional Learning for EDUCAUSE. I am driven by opportunities to help move the needle forward in individual and collective lives of the amazing people I get to work with. Prior to joining EDUCAUSE I have held positions as Faculty at Colorado State University and as an Analyst for a mangement consulting firm after I started my career teaching middle and high school. I am passionate about the application of organizational development, change mangement, leadership systems, and personal development to educational environments. I hold a BA in History, MS in Sport Science, and PhD in Education and Human Resource Studies.
