About
Octaviano James Beltran III joined the EAI family in August 2021 and is currently serving as a Customer Experience Manager. James brings 15 years of public education experience, including roles as a HS science teacher, instructional coach, dean of instruction, and district C&I administrator. As one who enjoys the "puzzle" that is master schedule building, James has 10+ years working on serving students' and teachers' best interests through optimization of campus master schedules.
Why Education Advanced?
"From my first days as an educator, I saw where there was a need to better support the students I served in the classroom. This passion to help grew stronger when I was blessed to support multiple campuses at the district level. Working with EAI now gives me the opportunity to better the lives of so many more people!"
Outside of Work
James is husband to an amazing wife and HS English teacher, father to two adult daughters - one an ER nurse in a pediatric hospital and the other an aspiring middle school math teacher - , and proud "Papa" to two inquisitive and beautiful granddaughters. Having a houseful of strong, intelligent women keeps him on his toes and brings him immeasurable joy. James enjoys DIY projects and is always trying to make things more practical and more beautiful. He can often be found hanging out with family, enjoying great music, taking evening walks with his wife and admiring the night sky, or serving at his local church.
"If you want to feel happy, do something for yourself. If you want to feel fulfilled, do something for someone else."
