Welcome! I’m Danielle Sullivan.

My Story:

I am a passionate educator, comedian, singer and creator who is obsessed with learning, creating new things, helping others, writing, discovering new things about myself and coffee.  I lead with love and humor in everything I do.

I’ve spent my entire life in the field of education. I began on Capitol Hill working on education reform. Then I spent the last 9+ years teaching in a Title I schools. I also spent tons of time co-teaching several summer institutes with the National Writing Project, running professional development workshops, and providing instructional coaching and consulting.  When I wasn’t teaching kids, I was talking with teachers about what worked and what didn’t in their classrooms and lives.

Working with teachers is my true passion.  I believe that teachers can be the change they wish to see in their classrooms and lives.  Teachers have so much to contribute to the world there is a reason teachers became educators, however the system is bogging down and holding back teachers from discovering the personal power.  My goal is to help teachers re-ignite their personal passion for teaching, and their lives.

For the last 5 years, I’ve also studied the science of happiness. I started learning everything I could about positive psychology, a research-based branch of psychology that studies what really causes people to thrive in their lives and work, and how we can apply those findings in practical ways.  I believe positive psychology and emotional education are the catalyst for a teacher revolution.

Now, it’s my greatest pleasure to work with teachers – as I truly believe that happy teachers will change the world.
