Clarifying purpose, formation, and identity
Clarity before change—so learning design is coherent, humane, and enduring.
Educational Renovation exists to help educators, institutions, and thoughtful leaders recover clarity about what they are forming, why it matters, and how structure shapes outcomes.Through writing, consulting, and teaching, I work at the intersection of education, formation, and organizational identity—serving both schools and small businesses that want coherence rather than confusion.
Educational Renovation is guided by a set of commitments that govern how the work is done.
Two Ways I Work
Formation-centered thinking for teachers, parents, and schools
I work with K–12 educators and families who are asking deeper questions about schooling, formation, and the long-term impact of educational choices.This includes:
• Formation-rooted essays and reflections
• Curriculum thinking grounded in purpose
• Support for teachers navigating coherence, vocation, and institutional pressure
Identity and strategy for adult institutions
I work with higher-education leaders, organizations, and small businesses to design learning solutions that restore clarity and direction. For founders and small teams, this means turning vision into clear learning pathways and internal training that shape how people think and work.
This work includes:
• Learning and training design for adults and teams
• Clarifying organizational purpose and identity
• Aligning mission, structure, and day-to-day practice
What Educational Renovation Means
Educational renovation begins with the recognition that confusion is not accidental. When institutions lose clarity about what they are forming, disorder shows up everywhere—in curriculum, culture, language, and expectations.Educational Renovation exists to help educators and leaders name that confusion honestly, without dramatizing it or trying to solve it with novelty. The work is not to add more ideas, programs, or initiatives, but to recover coherence.That recovery begins by returning to first principles: what is being formed, why it matters, and how structure shapes outcomes.When purpose is clarified, formation becomes intelligible, and strategy regains its proper place. Order is not imposed—it emerges from alignment.
Essays & Insights
Much of my work begins in writing—public essays that explore education, culture, formation, and institutional life. These reflections live primarily on Clarity, my Substack, and form the intellectual foundation for my consulting and teaching.
Begin a conversation
