About me
Courtney is the Assistant Director at Keep Indiana Learning. Prior to joining KINL in 2021, Courtney spent 17 years working in public, private, and public charter schools in Indiana, New York City, and Wisconsin. She has been a classroom teacher in grades 1-6 and 7th and 8th grade mathematics. As well, she has worked as an instructional coach, administrator and taught elementary math methods at IUPUI for seven years. Courtney has a Master of Arts in Educational Policy and Politics and a Master of Education in Educational Leadership from Teachers College at Columbia University. Currently, she is working to complete her PhD from Indiana University in Mathematics Education. Courtney prioritizes working with schools to help them better understand what instructional leaders need to do to support the creation of environments where elementary teachers of mathematics feel supported in implementing and sustaining ambitious and equitable mathematics teaching practices in their classrooms. She is determined to change the narrative of admitting that one is not a “math person” by inspiring teachers to teach ambitiously - and maybe even have a little fun while doing so.
