Drawing upon her multi-ethnic identities and experiences growing up in New York City, her skills to actively observe and understand were shaped. She understands that identity development and holding space for others and their stories is necessary to facilitate inclusive and equitable environments.  As DEI Coordinator at Avenues, The World School in New York, Regina offers ways for individuals to grow personally and professionally in and outside of the classroom through workshop facilitation, coaching and conversation.  She truly believes in the power of individuals and institutions to increase their capacity to think openly and act respectfully, creating a strong foundation for all to move forward, together.

She has spurred and inspired educators to reflect on their own biases, critically looks at structures and frameworks within institutions, and challenges leadership to hold themselves accountable. Regina is able to connect people and build relationships, opening the door to empowering others to take action and to be their authentic selves while on the journey to social justice.
