In addition to teaching in the classroom for 20+ years, I am also a technology coach, mentor teacher, and staff development trainer. I have trained teachers on many operating systems - Mac, iOS, Chrome, and Windows. At my school, I initiated our 1:1 Program. I was the first to pilot 1:1 iPads and then 1:1 Chromebooks in my classroom.
Below are examples of my past, present, and upcoming commitments. Please contact me if you are interested in having me give a training or presentation on professional development.
