Michelle Sullivan
Most of Michelle Sullivan’s professional and voluntary life has focused on the development of dynamic and connected communities. Currently, she is principal of Sullivan and Associates, a consulting firm that works with not-for-profit organizations and private foundations to more intentionally achieve their goals, and serves as a Trustee for the University of Wyoming. She is also developing the Center for Inspired Learning Environments. CenterILE will connect the most recent scientific research about how children and adults learn to the design of educational environments and approaches in education. When she can, she helps to teach a course at Harvard on the use of cognitive science research to design effective approaches to teaching and learning. This has helped to support the development of that bridge between research and practice.
