CEO, Founder, Principal Advisor@Flourishing Associates
Verified
I'm a data and implementation scientist with over 20 years of experience helping schools and organizations leverage data and research to drive meaningful change. I specialize in leadership, school culture, and systemic improvement, working alongside educators, policymakers, and senior leaders to turn insights into action.
As a published researcher and thought leader, my work explores how leadership and organizational climate shape student and staff success. My 2014 dissertation, downloaded nearly 8,000 times and cited by many, continues to influence research and practice. I've developed a socio-ecological model to help organizations understand the interconnected factors that impact success and a taxonomy of teaching and learning that redefines instructional practices in the era of AI. Both are available on the Flourishing Associates' blog.
A Senior Fellow at Harvard’s Human Flourishing Network, I also chair the Metrics Community of Practice to collect and refine metrics that assess flourishing in education and life.
In 2020, I founded Flourishing Associates to help schools and organizations move beyond traditional success measures and adopt research-backed strategies that foster thriving learning environments.
I am available for speaking engagements, workshops, and consulting on data-driven leadership, school culture, and the future of education.
