As a K-12 Partnerships Manager for CareerWise, David Fulton develops strong relationships with K-12 partners to ensure that students are prepared to be great apprentices. When he first joined CareerWise, he was a Curriculum Designer, where he helped develop the competencies and training plans embedded in apprenticeships.

Prior to joining to CareerWise, Fulton has been active in the education and non-profit space. Most recently, he served as the regional director of Facing History and Ourselves, an international educational non-profit linking the study of history with ethical reflection and action. He began his career as a teacher and administrator and then joined Denver Public Schools’ Office of Character and School Culture, where he served as its assistant director. He is co-author of “Building an Intentional School Culture: Excellence in Academics and Character” (Corwin Press, 2007).

A graduate of Emory University, he holds an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in foundations of education and completed his post-doctoral fellowship in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He enjoys tennis and hiking, and lives in Golden with his wife and two small children, Adele and Amos, who bring him great joy (but not nearly enough sleep).
