Our Story, Mission, Vision and Values

Ignite.Ed Consulting was created with a simple belief. Education should not just prepare students for the future, it should inspire them to build it. Too often, classrooms struggle to keep pace with the rapid changes in technology, industry, and the way students learn best. Learners are left with knowledge that feels disconnected from their passions, and teachers often feel they are missing the tools to bridge that gap.

After more than fourteen years working in classrooms and educational leadership, guiding students and teachers through STEM, STREAM, and technology-driven programs, our founder saw the need for something new. With a Doctorate in Education and a career devoted to building innovative pathways, Ignite.Ed was born as a consulting firm focused on designing learning experiences that are relevant, inspiring, and undeniably future-ready. Ignite.Ed is more than a company. It is a mission to partner with educators, leaders, and communities to design programs that spark curiosity, fuel creativity, and connect directly to the opportunities ahead. From ESports to STREAM initiatives to makerspaces filled with emerging technologies, our work is built around a simple truth. When education feels meaningful and exciting, students thrive.

Today, Ignite.Ed works with partners locally and globally to bring this vision to life. Every program built, every teacher supported, and every student inspired adds another spark to a future of education that is bold, imaginative, and filled with possibility.
Our mission is to ignite a passion for learning by helping schools and organizations design engaging, forward-looking programs in STEM, STREAM, and emerging technologies. We aim to prepare learners to explore, innovate, and thrive in a rapidly changing world.
We envision a future where every learner has the opportunity to discover their passions, apply their creativity, and build the skills needed to shape the world around them. We believe in the power of failing forward, turning mistakes into stepping stones and challenges into opportunities for growth.
Innovation guides everything we do as we create learning experiences that embrace creativity, technology, and exploration. Equity ensures that every student has access to inspiring and meaningful educational opportunities. Collaboration drives us to work closely with educators, industry leaders, and communities to create lasting impact. Impact is measured by more than programs delivered. It is seen in the spark of curiosity, the resilience built, and the futures transformed.
When I started Ignite.Ed, I wanted to do more than build programs. I wanted to build possibilities. I have seen how a single spark of curiosity can change the way a student views themselves and their future. I have seen how empowering educators with the right tools can light up a classroom. And I have seen how quickly the world is changing, giving education two choices: adapt or be left behind.
Ignite.Ed was created because I believe we can do better. We can give students
experiences that feel meaningful, exciting, and connected to the careers and challenges of tomorrow. We can give schools and organizations the strategies they need to innovate with purpose. And we can give teachers the confidence to lead learning in bold and inspiring ways.
At its core, Ignite.Ed is about people. Educators, students, families, and communities working together to create an education system that sparks imagination and empowers success. That is the future I believe in, and it is the work I am proud to lead every day.
