“Michelle is one of the most hardworking and compassionate women I know! Over the years, I have been fortunate to work with Michelle in various capacities as an Early Care and Education advocate, equity trainer for preschool teachers, and co-founders of the “Lesson Up!” podcast. I am continually impressed by her self-motivation and dedication to the children and families at her school, her commitment to social justice, and ability to maintain close relationships with her colleagues. Even while surviving a pandemic, she continually showed up for others and brought a positive energy to every room (virtual and in-person!). Michelle is one of those multitalented people who can do anything she puts her mind to. I really can't recommend her enough to any team, project, job, or other position she sets out to achieve!”
