about our founder

I started ImpactED Consulting Agency because I remember being a student in far too many classrooms where the teacher, although well intentioned, did not have the tools, capacity or resources to teach in a culturally responsive way.  I can assume that my teachers throughout my educational journey had well meaning intentions, but the fact still remains that their lack of skill or will to promote equitable practices caused harm not only to me, but to my peers.  Later, as a teacher, very little in terms of professional development on culturally responsive teaching had changed.  Teachers were left to fend for themselves, oftentimes, attempting to teach hard, complex subjects like Slavery,  Reconstruction, and Jim Crow without the tools needed to be successful.  This often led to students being angry, sad, feeling guilty or not willing to engage in lessons in any meaningful way.  I started ImpactED consulting because I want to change that narrative.  America does a horrible job of teaching factual history. Students, both white and students or color are left with no real understanding of themselves, their nation or their place in it.  As Paulo Freire stated, “ “There is no such thing as neutral education. Education either functions as an instrument to bring about conformity or freedom.”  I want to help schools and teachers promote freedom, promote truth telling and you need more than good intentions, uplifting posters and countless reenactments of the Montgomery Bus Boycott to do that.  You need skill. I can help teachers develop those skills.
