Biography
Sherry brings extensive experience in public and private education at the K-12 and post-secondary levels, having held positions as an administrator, teacher, and adjunct professor. Sherry is also an experienced recruiter and search consultant with a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion. She understands the challenges and opportunities faced by the most senior managers in schools, especially in regard to hiring, retention, and other strategic initiatives.
