About

As an historian, international speaker, and curriculum specialist, I am committed to advancing Holocaust and human rights education. With over three decades of experience, including work at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, and as a history teacher and founder of Humanus Network, I help educators gain confidence and navigate the complexities of teaching difficult history, equipping them to confront contemporary challenges such as rising authoritarianism, antisemitism, and threats to democracy.

Through curriculum development, training programs, and immersive educational experiences—like the “Power of Place”: European Summer Institute for Holocaust Educators—I’ve reached over 1,500 educators and 120,000 students. My clients include leading institutions such as the Auschwitz Institute for the Prevention of Genocide and Mass Atrocities, Illinois Holocaust Museum, Jewish Community Relations Council of MN and the Dakotas, and Vancouver Holocaust Education Centre.

In addition, my professional network includes longstanding relationships with some of the field’s leading voices—Paul Salmons, Carl Wilkens, Alexandra Zapruder—whose work continues to shape global conversations in Holocaust and genocide education. Partnering with me means tapping into both my deep expertise and my trusted network of thought leaders whose insights enrich every engagement.

Whether facilitating professional development, designing impactful resources, or advising on pedagogy, I create learning experiences that inspire reflection, deepen understanding, and empower action. Because “Never Again” must be more than a promise—it must be a practice.
