Hi, I’m Cindy! I’m an educator, consultant, coach, resource creator, and host of The Community Effect Podcast. After nearly 30 years in education as both a teacher and principal, I now help educators build connected, collaborative, thriving classroom communities through intentional, relationship-centered practices and resources. When I’m not creating trainings or recording podcast episodes, you’ll usually find me with an iced coffee in hand, cheering on the 49ers, spending time with my number one...hubby Rick, or making Starbucks runs with my dogs Dugan and Luna.
