“The experience and knowledge Diane brings to the partnership with our district is exceptional, unlike most partner organizations.  She is passionate about her beliefs about students, teachers, and curriculum.  She brings her beliefs and knowledge into every conversation and task but can do it in a very trustworthy and personable way.  She takes time to listen to and understand the needs of our district and the projects while also providing timely coaching, questions, and feedback that bring awareness and understanding to those she supports.  Simply put, she knows, and she cares.”

“I consulted with Diane to help me organize and enhance a system for the management and oversight of continuous improvement projects for the Learning & Teaching Division. She served as a thought-partner and provided insightful recommendations on how to not only update the system but also support the work of the individual teams in accomplishing their department goals.”
