Project 1

Using home renovations an as analogy, sometimes an organization's programs and presentations might need a fresh coat of paint, a light remodel, or a full-gut rehab and revitalization. Click here to read about how I worked on a team of two to revitalize an annual event, hosted by Spring Independent School District's Multilingual department, to make it more visually appealing, engaging and impactful for attendees. 

*This project (Empowerment Summits) was selected to be presented at the 2022 Title III Symposium hosted by the Texas Education Agency in San Antonio, Texas and also at the 2022 Texas Association of Bilingual Educators Hybrid Conference that was held in Houston, Texas! Additionally, this project was presented to the Region 4 Education Service Center's Bilingual/ESL/Title III Contacts in November 2022 and was presented to multiple campus representatives at the Region 4 Spring Title III Leadership Network Meeting in May 2023! (Region 4 is one of 20 regional education service centers established by the Texas Legislature in 1967 to assist school districts and charter schools in improving efficiencies and student performance.) Lastly, this project was featured in La Prensa de Houston, a Houston-based print and digital newspaper with local, national and international news in Spanish!

Project 2

An essential practice of any organization that aims to sustain positive growth over time is addressing anticipated and real performance shortcomings of its employees. For this project, I was recruited by the educational nonprofit organization Teach For America (an organization I am an alumni of) to present to a group of corps members who struggled with engaging their students in academic discourse. Students having relevant and content-rich conversations in class is one of the top ways content can be retained, so it was imperative this issue be addressed.

Project 3

In March 2020, schools in Texas, and the nation were shutdown to curtail the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This caused a quick and unprecedented shift in the way instruction was to be delivered to students.
