Bio
Lizz Zitron
I enjoy working with Davida because of the deep passion, commitment, and innovation she brings to any project of which she is a part. I learn constantly from her and she inspires my work in pursuing equity through education. Davida brings a deep well of knowledge, experience, and love to her work that informs how she shows up as a leader, mentor, and colleague. I am fortunate to work with Davida in a variety of arenas at Pierce College all centered around students. Davida centers students while keeping an eye on the development and well-being of her colleagues. She approaches equity work collaboratively, critically, and sustainably. Davida brings innovative, thoughtful ideas based on her education expertise that actively address the needs of students. I particularly enjoy working on long-range planning activities with Davida: she has a keen sense of the big picture but also understands what short term actions need to take place to create better experiences and opportunities for all in the education system. She is a strong, dynamic organizer who can organize faculty, students, community members, and administrators around a common goal. Give Davida a group of people and a goal and she will make it happen! More importantly, she will create accountability, a sense of team, and an overall positive experience that leaves others feeling valued and excited to work with her again.
