About Kendall Wynne

Leading Teach For America\'s recruitment efforts for over three years, my role as Recruitment Manager involves meticulously crafting and implementing full-cycle strategies that have demonstrably increased application submissions by over 25%. At the core of my success is a commitment to enhancing talent acquisition, which has been evident through surpassing team averages with a 20% invitation-to-meet rate from cold outreach initiatives. Previously, as an EL Teacher, I managed a significant caseload of learners and spearheaded collaborations that improved English proficiency. This background, combined with skills in social networking and nonprofit volunteering, enables me to support Teach For America\'s mission—empowering communities through strategic educational initiatives. Our team’s collective efforts are focused on building a more equitable future for students nationwide.
