Paya's educational journey has been rich and diverse, fueling her passion for empowering minds.

From bustling public schools to nurturing private institutions, Paya has thrived in diverse educational environments.

When she’s not making changes in the educational landscape you can find Paya emptying the dishwasher, listening to podcasts, folding laundry that never gets put away, initiating dance parties with her children (electric slide anyone?), going for a walk/trot and searching for her coffee that she set down somewhere.
