Why I Created the Education Expert Exchange

At the heart of my work as an educator and consultant is a belief in professional generosity. I’ve always felt that when we openly share our ideas, tools, and expertise, we all benefit—and so do the educators and students we serve. There’s plenty of work to go around in our field, and I want clients to find the best fit for their projects, even if that’s not always me.

Over the years, I’ve been thinking deeply about how to better support professionals who work in education—but outside of traditional roles. There are few professional development opportunities tailored to independent consultants, edtech entrepreneurs, instructional designers, and others who don’t fit neatly into school or district structures. I had big ideas—like launching a retreat in a beautiful destination or hosting a women-in-edtech bootcamp alongside a major conference like ISTE. But those ideas required major lifts in time, travel, and logistics.

Then I discovered the potential of the RingCentral Events platform (formerly Hopin). Over the past four years, I’ve used it to host global education events for Actionable Innovations Global and our partners. I hold an agency license, allowing me to customize and produce high-quality virtual events for a variety of audiences. I’ve learned that while virtual gatherings can’t fully replicate the experience of being together in person, they can be dynamic, equitable, and connection-rich when designed with intention.

That’s why I created the Education Expert Exchange (EEE)—an online summit that brings together consultants and other education professionals to share their work, learn from each other, and connect with schools, conference organizers, and organizations seeking expert talent. EEE is a place to discover new collaborators, sharpen your consultancy skills, and build community in a field that can sometimes feel isolating.

EEE also helps bridge the gap between consultants and the realities of today’s classrooms. It’s vital that we stay connected to schools and educators if we want to remain relevant and effective. Some may look down on consultants who have left the classroom—but I view us as non-traditional educators, still deeply invested in improving education, just from a different vantage point.

Ultimately, the Education Expert Exchange is rooted in the idea that we’re better together—and that by creating a space for generous sharing, strategic learning, and meaningful connection, we can all do our part to move education forward.
