Graduated from the University of California at Berkeley, College of Education, Social and Cultural Studies Program. Dissertation: Conflict and Subordination: A Study of the Intersection of Race, Culture, and School Change in the Socialization of Children of Color. This work looks at cultural practices that perpetuate punitive approaches to social behavior that the school system has deemed unacceptable. While such practices affect all youngsters, they particularly penalize racialized youth. Over the years I have continued this line of inquiry from socio-linguistic and anthropological angles. At the university I have taught courses ranging from organizational theory, leadership, system analysis, school design, to research methods, curriculum planning, community involvement in schools and advocacy, primarily to professional educators concerned with PK-16 learning.
My work experience includes extensive research, leadership coaching and program evaluation in the public school systems. I have centrally worked for non-governmental and higher learning institutions.
At the core of my work sits the question: What key social and cultural forces intervene in transforming learning institutions into just and equitable social environments? I have done extensive studies of a few social realms: conflict, networks, institutional systems, agency (i.e., leadership), restorative justice. The focal point of my studies has recently consisted of the role of discourse both, as embodiment of values and beliefs, and as a potential source for social change.
