Class Experience

Do group projects find you confused and wondering where to start? "Begin with the end in mind," says Stephen Covey, author of the iconic book "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People." In this one-time class we will explore this statement by Covey as it relates to the highly transferable skill of project management! We will discuss best practices such as goal setting, planning, and execution, and bring those concepts together in ways that are relevant to the learner age group. Learners will have the opportunity to participate in an interactive project planning session where we will develop strategies for managing time and resources. 

MY TEACHING STYLE: I lead my class with warmth and respect for each learner, regardless of where they may be on their journey. I believe each class is an opportunity to inspire and be inspired, so it's important to show up with a positive attitude and an open mind. My class is a blend of lecture/slides and guided discussion. I use a Google Slide presentation to engage the class and illustrate points. Open, guided discussion is important to the cadence of this class; however, while class participation is encouraged, it is not required.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I hold a B.S. in Business Management with comprehensive business experience across multiple disciplines. Over the course of my career, I've had the opportunity to manage projects in exciting industries like video production and technology development! I now provide project management coaching and strategic consulting to teams around the world. My love for this work runs deep as is evident in my YouTube channel, where I share tips and techniques for working in project management. As a mentor, I'm proud to be a support to young females entering the tech industry, and recently celebrated one of my mentees being hired into a dream job at Meta! In my community, I serve as Secretary and board member of our local Main Street organization, where we lead initiatives that serve both our youth and entrepreneurial community. And most importantly, in my personal life, I am the proud mother to an elementary aged child who loves learning as much as I do!
