Hi, I’m Carley.
I help schools with the work after the workshop — building systems and faculty support structures that make professional learning stick.
Are you investing time and money into in-house professional development and conferences that don’t actually shift teaching practice or student outcomes?
I help schools and educators move from "I went to this workshop" to "here's how it shows up in my practice." After years of doing this work from inside schools as a senior leader and Dean of Faculty — coaching and observing faculty, leading professional development and adult learning — I’m supporting organizations in a new way.
I offer consulting around translating faculty professional development into meaningful and sustained practice, and provide 1:1 Coaching, detailed further below.
What I Offer
I partner with schools who want to build inclusive communities and systems, and design PD that is immediately applicable for faculty, impactful for student learning, and sustainable.
My work is for institutions who want more than out-of-touch PDs, or surface-level belonging statements, and are ready for deeper follow-through.
With the overwhelm and capacity limitations inherent in many school roles, I aim to be a resource and strategic partner for navigating a problem and implementing lasting change.
I believe deeply in this work and its criticality for student success, and it’s only effective when it is sustainable, accountable, and human-centered.
Consulting
I aim to be a listening ear and thought partner for those on their own journeys in or around schools — for those transitioning into a new leadership role, Heads of School navigating complex moments, staff members who want to move to the student-facing side, leaders struggling to balance their careers with parenting, and more. I am grateful for the leadership coaches I've had in my career, and coaching is my way to pay it forward.
