Noreen Haque-Colombe
I came to education through corporate America. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Aviation Administration and a Master’s Degree in Education and participated in community outreach where I taught a kindergarten class. The experience served as an impetus for me to change careers and pursue education. I have been in involved in education for over 10 years and have worked as a classroom teacher, Program Manager, and curriculum design and professional development instructor. I feel incredibly fortunate to have worked in professional development as it offers the opportunity to work with a variety of school communities and learn about their needs. Working in professional development, I have worked help schools maximize instruction and implementation. Meeting a variety of school staff and students is always a pleasure. Each school has its story and it is always an honor to take time to understand what their successes and areas of improvement are. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, and biking and my two daughters.
