Support. Strengthen. Succeed
At Root to Tree Consulting, we believe in planting strong foundations to cultivate thriving educators and empowered school leaders. With over a decade of experience across elementary, middle, and high school classrooms, our founder brings a deep understanding of the challenges educators face—and the solutions that drive real growth. For the past five years, she has served as a trusted mentor to new teachers, helping them navigate the demands of the profession with confidence and clarity. In her final year of classroom teaching, she transitioned into a dual role that blended leadership coaching with hands-on professional development—an experience that ignited the mission behind Root to Tree Consulting. As a certified coach through the International Coaching Federation, she integrates research-based practices with reflective dialogue to guide educators and leaders toward sustainable change. Her active blog extends this mission, offering ongoing insights, tools, and strategies rooted in equity, effectiveness, and empowerment. Root to Tree Consulting exists to support, strengthen, and help school teams succeed—by developing people, not just policies.
