“Professional, engaging, and kind are just a few of the words I would use to describe Dr. Karen Baptiste.  I have worked with Karen as a Board Member for Florida ASCD and as a Thinking Maps consultant but I am more honored to call her a friend.  Dr. K embodies all the characteristics of an excellent facilitator leveraging her knowledge of how the brain best learns to empower educators to make a difference with the students they serve through impactful relationship building and engaging strategies. Additionally, Dr. K leads the way with her advocacy for policy and legislation changes to forever dismantle the preschool to prison pipeline. Always with a compassionate word, an infectious smile, and a listening ear, Dr. K is the epitome of just an incredible human being.”
