Director of Leader Support and Development at Education Leaders of Color

Patrice is the Director of Leader Support and Development at Education Leaders of Color (EdLoC). In this role she designs and delivers professional development opportunities, builds community and encourages values-driven action among a cadre of high-level Black and Latino education leaders across the country.

Prior to joining EdLoC, Patrice served as Associate Director of NYC Men Teach, a mayoral initiative aimed at increasing the number of men of color in the pipeline to become NYC public school teachers. As the City University of New York’s lead in this effort, she was instrumental in partnering with the Mayor’s Office and the NYC Department of Education to exceed the Mayor’s policy goals and maintain an equity-centered approach toward helping to diversify the teacher workforce.
