As Director of Innovation, Inge is a visionary who implements a growth mindset by creating a culture that empowers all learners to explore their passions, interests, and future through play and purpose. She is a team builder who welcomes divergent thinking and encourages everyone to become part of the innovation process. Inge works in close collaboration with faculty and staff to design optimum learning environments where there is room for risk taking, critical thinking, problem-solving, self-assessment, reflection, and connected learning. She works relentlessly with faculty and students to leverage new methodologies and new technologies, yet never forgetting the human aspect of relationships. Inge promotes global presence through online presence for all through blogging and social media, will ask questions and listen with empathy.
