As a Program Coordinator, Edy oversees seven school sites and guides a team of six instructors to ensure Adventure Education Solutions programs run smoothly and consistently.
He stays in constant communication with site leads and principals, coordinates daily operations, and makes sure each school has the support and resources it needs. Whether it's problem-solving, planning, or stepping in to help a site directly, his focus is on keeping everything running efficiently so students and staff can thrive.
Edy draws from a wide range of experience that supports the work he does today. He holds a bachelor's degree in Business Management and brings over 20 years of leadership and operations experience, including eight years of service in the United States Army, where discipline, communication, and follow-through weren't suggestions—they were the job. Before stepping into program management, he spent three years as an ELD teacher and substituted across seven different school districts in multiple counties. Those years in the classroom taught him more about students, families, and the heart of education than any textbook ever could.
He's also the author of Within The Paradox, a self-improvement book rooted in personal transformation and conscious growth. That work continues to shape how he leads, how he communicates, and how he supports the instructors and school sites he serves.
Right now, Edy is excited about strengthening school sites and watching instructors grow into their roles with more confidence each week. "There's something rewarding about seeing a team come together—communication improving, systems running smoother, and students benefiting from the work we pour in behind the scenes," he shares.
"I do this work because strong communities begin with supported schools," Edy explains. "When instructors feel confident, principals feel backed, and students feel safe, entire neighborhoods thrive. Helping our sites grow isn't just my job, it's my way of investing in the communities we serve."
Outside of work, Edy enjoys reading, writing, and diving into personal growth. He also loves getting outdoors: kayaking, skydiving, and exploring anything that brings him closer to nature and a little adrenaline. Whether it's a quiet moment with a book or an afternoon on the water, he's always looking for ways to stay inspired and connected to life.
