As a proud educational Underdog, I believe in honestly expressing my values and intentions. These are the principles I live by.
- Disruption and Individualization are Essential for Growth. It is my job to disrupt the status quo, or the pattern of achievement and behavior that is not working, in order to create growth and change for individuals.
- Achievement is Power. Focusing only on growth does not address the opportunity gap. Growth that bridges to achievement and improves access to age-appropriate instruction and higher-paying jobs does.
- Success Begins with Access. We can increase the number of steps on the path to proficiency and the amount opportunities to practice new skills instead of watering skills down. In other words, we can change the path and adjust the timeline without compromising the destination.
- Challenges, Like Failures, become Strengths. Adverse experiences and challenging circumstances can lead to educational gaps and struggles, but they can also pave the way for growth at a high rate.
- Relationships Transform. When we connect as humans who have more similarities than differences, we can accomplish incredible goals. We waste less time pushing forward our agendas and enacting judgement and opinions on one another, and more time moving forward together.
