Quotes:
“We don't necessarily have a teacher shortage. Teachers exist, [but] they're leaving this particular field. There are plenty of licensed teachers. Teachers are a really hot commodity to be recruited into other professions.”
“Sometimes I am the decision maker—there might be a product that, depending on what it does, the service center itself needs to buy. But in other situations, maybe we're not the purchaser—we might be the door. We know the districts well and know exactly what they're looking for. And so sometimes, I can get [a vendor] right to the person they need to be talking to, and they can skip 10 steps because I already know who they need to meet.”
“I'm really excited to see the districts authentically using the service center and letting me help convene them as a lot of fun and just hearing them brainstorm together.”
