Professional Bio
Shelly began her career in change management at the age of 5 when she was enrolled at what was to be the first of the eleven schools she would attend prior to graduating from high school. Being the perpetual “new kid” forced her to quickly and strategically assess new environments, orient herself to new curriculum, policy and rules and figure out the political nuance involved in navigating recess.
Shelly kept up the fast pace by holding various positions in different associations and then serving as executive director for two different associations – one a 501(c)(6) and one a 501(c)(3). She is fascinated with the intersection between technology, the education to employment system and the association of the future. She develops future-focused retreats designed to appeal to younger members and speaks on topics meant to provoke and engage discussion on what it means to be a human in an increasingly machine driven world.
Being a blue collar girl in a white collar world leads to some quirky observations. A revolutionary, self-proclaimed edupunk, she avidly studies climate change, authoritarianism and how we can regenerate our social, cultural, spiritual, economic and environmental systems. Her pronouns are she/they.
