LATISHA NICOLE

LaTisha Nicole is an education revolutionary, who has exhibited innovation at the classroom level, as a principal and at a District-level over her twenty-five-year career. Known for her ability to develop leaders, LaTisha has coached and strengthened educational systems in the Midwest, Southwest and the East Coast through LaTisha Nicole Consulting (Formerly Vaughn-Brandon Consulting). LaTisha has spent the majority of her career focusing on ensuring equitable outcomes for black and brown children and families, increasing the diversity of teachers and leaders in the education and non-profit spaces, and authentically engaging and elevating the voices of parents and children.

Passionate about serving her community, LaTisha has also served on several non-profit boards, including her current service on the board of directors for Teach for America, South Carolina. She was also named as the 2018 Education honoree for the YWCA’s Women Bring Award, which recognizes women leaders breaking industry barriers across South Carolina.

LaTisha received her first bachelor’s degree in Accounting from the University of Missouri.  After working for about six months in the field, she realized she needed to heed her calling to work in education where her life’s work would be to ensure all children have equal access to a world class education so they will be able to compete in a global society. She immediately returned to school to obtain a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from Park College (now Park University), and Master of Educational Leadership from Georgia State University.

Building Systems
Sustainable solutions within organizations, schools and districts require building systems that support key stakeholders.  

Collaboration
Collaboration must take place in any partnership focused on improving outcomes.
