K-12 Education Resources

Christina is a former teacher who loves teaching and learning. In her quest to add to my professional toolbox, she took a leap into the world of administration before she felt ready. She quickly realized this was the best decision she had yet to make, as it fueled her passion for change. After eight years as an elementary school building principal, she took another blind leap to accept the position of Director of Elementary Instruction and this took her right back to her pedagogy of teaching with the mindset to lead. Only now, she knows how to instill the change necessary to transform. When she is not digging into curriculum, she can be found spending time with her husband and four daughters on the lake or running endless miles in brightly colored tennis shoes.
