Welcome to Inspire Your Pathway
Duane Smith, BA, M.Ed
I am a seasoned life coach and state certified teacher, who empowers clients to navigate personal and career challenges. Leveraging my rich background in communication from my service in the US Navy, expertise acquired in Washington DC on diverse Tech Projects, and roles as an instructor at prominent institutions like the USDA Graduate School, Catonsville Community College, and Delaware Technical Community College, I offer a unique blend of introspection, connection, and ambition. I guide clients in identifying goals, discovering resources for growth, and taking the necessary steps to achieve their aspirations.
In addition to my current role, I bring extensive experience in education, having dedicated the past 25 years to teaching students with special needs from kindergarten to college level. Furthermore, I played a pioneering role in the late 1990s by developing and implementing one of the first online Individualized Education Program (IEP) writing systems.
