Introduction	Hello! As AFS-USA’s Director of School Outreach and Educational Partnerships, I work to establish AFS-USA as a thought leader in global competency and 21st century educational skills. Also, I cultivate partnerships with like-minded organizations and develop intercultural learning resources for secondary school educators and their classrooms. Prior to joining AFS-USA, I was the Program Director at Global Nomads Group, an NGO that fosters dialogue and understanding amongst the world’s youth. I hold an Ed.D. and M.A. in international educational development from Columbia University’s Teachers College, where I was a Fulbrighter in Tanzania. I received my B.A. in primary education and Spanish from the University of Massachusetts (Amherst). However, my most important achievement is being a mother of twin daughters, to whom my efforts to advance global citizenship are dedicated.
