About Deanna C.

Accomplished and data-driven operations and people leader with experiences in education, data analysis, and visual analytics. I have 9+ years of experience in the education sector at the state, CMO, and school levels. I love solving tough problems, designing efficient systems, and mentoring the amazing leaders that work in schools.As a High School Director of Operations (DOO), I grew my school’s student body by 100 students (25%), launched an integrated co-teaching model to support students with disabilities, and was named the 2023 “High School DOO of the Year.” I designed and ran systems and schedules for in-person, remote, and hybrid school models throughout the COVID pandemic, resulting in 400 college acceptances (an average of 5 college acceptances per student) and $5.2 million in college scholarships for the graduating class of 2023.In my former roles, I built visual analytics tools that are still in use by school leaders 5 years later. As a Regional Superintendent of Operations, I currently develop operations leaders at some of the best middle and high schools in Brooklyn. I’m known amongst my peers for my high internal bar, data driven decision making, and relentless student’s first mindset. Feel free to message me- I’d love to chat.
