Joe Powell

I have gained valuable experience as a collaborative leader over the past twenty nine years. I am confident in my ability to collaboratively lead a team of stakeholders committed to building pathways to careers and post-secondary education and collaboratively leading a team of stakeholders that believe, inspire, and empower a culture of voice and choice. I am passionate about collaboratively leading a team where all stakeholders inspire students to look beyond the attainment of a diploma, and where all stakeholders inspire innovation, personalization, and reimagines learning through a creative lens and perspective.
