Training Associates

Marie believes in the need for human-centeredness in all her work. Transformational learning can only result when the dignity and humanity of clients and coachees is honored and preserved. Marie's approach is based in the idea that we all bring something to the coaching relationship, as long as we ensure we are showing up as learners.

With over 20 years in various areas of education, Marie has experience as a mentor for new teachers, instructional coach, adult learning facilitator, and professor.
