My Approach

Areas of Expertise

Consulting Toward Thriving Organizations & Communities

At Aina Consulting and Educational Services, we specialize in providing expert assistance to organizations in the areas of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) practices and policies. We conduct thorough audits to assess the current state of your organization's DEI practices and policies, and develop a customized plan to improve and implement them. Our team of experienced professionals are also available to deliver comprehensive training to your staff and stakeholders to ensure that everyone is equipped with the necessary skills to promote a more inclusive and welcoming environment. Additionally, we offer curriculum development services to ensure that your organization's educational materials align with your DEI goals and values.

Highly Engaging, Cutting-Edge Learning

Today's classrooms are quickly changing. Learning is a layered experience that taps into emotions, cultural relevance, technology, and social dynamics. Today's classrooms need to be driven by purpose and meaning, aimed at individual and community thriving, and be highly interactive. Gone are the days of only teaching toward content mastery. We are in the middle of the biggest pedagogical shift in over a century. Professional development for teachers needs to focus on layers rather than isolated (and usually ineffective) practices. Aina's professional developments are tailored to your faculty's and students' needs because they are truly about inspired, engaging, and energizing ways to teach and learn. Dr. Love's insights will bring life to your school and district!

Culturally Responsive Leadership

We specialize in providing comprehensive consulting services to schools, government agencies, and businesses seeking to improve their leadership and organizational effectiveness. Our team of experienced educators and leaders provide training, coaching, and development programs to promote culturally responsive and thriving leadership. We believe that by strengthening leadership, we bring life-changing and long-lasting impacts on individuals, organizations, and communities. Let us help you build a culture of excellence and equity in your institution.

Using AI in the Workplace and Classroom

Our consulting services are designed to assist clients who are looking to integrate AI into their organizations.
