Claudia has spent her career in education in a number of different capacities. After the realization that education is a key component of breaking the cycle of poverty, she began working to promote access and success in higher education for traditionally underserved student populations. A part of this work included financial aid for post secondary programs and then Governor Mitch Daniels appointed Claudia to lead two state agencies that provided financial aid to Indiana students. This advocacy work led to the creation of a private consulting company helping political candidates, lawmakers, not-for-profit education organizations and other entities in education policy and advocacy.
Now retired from this work, Claudia works with eDynamic Learning to promote what she considers to be the current most important educational agenda- providing schools with the tools to help students embrace the opportunity to explore career options, and then providing them with the pathways for their ultimate success.
