Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, based in Massachusetts, I (she/her) am an educator, scholar, and consultant passionate about creating inclusive and engaging learning experiences. With over a decade of teaching experience in high school and higher education settings, I specialize in course design, curriculum development, and culturally responsive teaching practices.

I received my doctorate in African American and African Studies from the Ohio State University and have designed and led a diverse set of classes. In the classroom, I have taught various world history and African history courses, focusing on high quality instruction and deeper learning rooted in developing historical inquiry and historical empathy through culturally affirming pedagogies. I have played a key role in developing anti-racist history curriculum across grade levels and have worked to secure grants to support instructional innovation, independent research and professional development opportunities, and student engagement.

In every role I take on—whether in the classroom, as a project manager, or as a yoga instructor— I bring a deep commitment to equity, creativity, and student-centered learning to my work.
