“Surge represents an opportunity to deepen my leadership practice and join a community committed to advancing educational equity through action and innovation. Now more than ever, I am eager to expand my capacity to lead transformative change within my organization and community. The Surge Fellowship offers the mentorship, critical reflection, and strategic tools I need to amplify my impact and center equity in every decision. I hope to emerge as a more confident, connected, and courageous leader—one who not only disrupts systems that perpetuate inequity but also builds sustainable pathways for others to lead. Through Surge, I seek to refine my vision, strengthen my voice, and contribute to a powerful collective working toward justice and liberation for all communities.”
