Michelle Kuamoo's professional career has been guided and driven by a single quote from Fred Rogers, “Where would any of us be without teachers – without people who have a passion for their art or their science or their craft and love it right in front of us? What would any of us do without teachers passing on to us what they know is essential about life?” She has spent the last 25 years training and teaching adult educators as a school administrator, University professor and professional development trainer, supporting teachers in almost every state in the United States and internationally including the South Pacific, Japan, and Mexico. She has worked with two National Education Laboratories (e.g., Northwest Regional Education Laboratory and Pacific Resources for Education and Learning), two federal education agencies, and two for-profit companies delivering thousands of trainings to educators at the local, state and national levels. Her goal is to provide educators with concrete tools to guide children with high quality intentional interactions. Her education includes a Doctorate in School Leadership and Administration, a Masters in Elementary Education, and a Bachelors in Early Childhood Education. When not working, she enjoys hiking, traveling, cooking, spending time with family, and taking long walks with her dogs.
