As I step into the role of Executive Director of Region 10 Education Service Center, I'm filled with excitement and purpose. As a member of the Region 10 team since 2013, I've seen firsthand the transformative power of education and the important role our center plays in supporting educators across the region. Now, I'm eager to build upon our strong foundation.
My vision for Region 10 is rooted in collaboration, innovation, and a steadfast commitment to student success. We will continue to work closely with educators and school district leaders, fostering partnerships that allow us to respond effectively to the evolving needs of our students and the entire educational community.
One of my key priorities will be expanding and enhancing our professional development offerings. We'll focus on providing educators with cutting-edge tools and strategies to create engaging, inclusive learning environments. We’ll also work alongside district leaders and educators to design solutions that meet each district’s goals - aligning our supports to your mission. And we will leverage technology to increase access to our resources and expertise, ensuring that educators can easily connect with the support they need, when they need it.
Ultimately, my vision for Region 10 is one of continuous improvement and unwavering dedication to our mission. We will strive to be at the forefront of educational innovation, always seeking new ways to support our educators and the students they serve.
I'm incredibly grateful for the trust placed in me by the Region 10 Board of Directors and for the incredible team I have the honor of leading. I'm also deeply appreciative of the foundation laid by my predecessor, Dr. Gordon Taylor.
To all the educators and district leaders in our region: I look forward to working alongside you, learning from you, and providing service and solutions that support the vital work you do every day for students. Together, we can make Region 10 an even more powerful force for positive change in education. The future is bright, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it.
