Update: 2023-04-18

Description

Today I am thrilled to welcome our guest, Misty Her. Misty is the Deputy Superintendent of Fresno Unified School District and the highest ranking Hmong K-12 professional in the nation. Yes, in the nation. Her story is exceptional beginning with her years when she immigrated to Fresno as a young girl. After college, she returned to Fresno unified as a bilingual aide and worked her way up to now Deputy Superintendent. Please take a moment now or after you listen to share this episode. What Misty has to share is too good to not get to others.
