ADVISORY + CONSULTING
Bringing the School Leader Perspective to Your Table
Most EdTech products are built without a practicing school leader in the room. I help companies and districts close that gap with honest, practitioner-grounded guidance.
HOW I WORK WITH COMPANIES + DISTRICTS
Advisory + Consulting Services
FOR EDTECH COMPANIES
Product Advisory
Ongoing practitioner feedback on product direction, user experience, and school-market fit. I help you understand how your tool actually lands inside a real school and district.
Retainer or project-based engagements
FOR DISTRICTS + ORGANIZATIONS
AI Policy Development
Helping districts and organizations build AI use policies, acceptable use frameworks, and implementation roadmaps grounded in what actually works at the school level. Not theory. Practice.
Custom engagements for district leadership teams
FOR EDTECH COMPANIES
Product Evaluation
Honest, structured feedback on how your tool performs inside a real school environment. I evaluate usability, workflow integration, teacher adoption barriers, and whether the product solves the problem it claims to solve.
Written evaluation with actionable recommendations
FOR EDTECH COMPANIES + RESEARCHERS
Co-Design Consulting
I help companies structure genuine co-design processes that center practitioner expertise and produce tools schools actually want to use. I bring not only my own expertise as a practitioner but also as a person who writes with learning scientists.
