The Medford Engineering Academy Courses are taught by Mrs Liz Humphrey, who holds a BS in Electronics Engineering Technology from DeVry Institute of Technology and a MA in Career & Technical Education from Ball State University. Her engineering project experience includes work on civil weather satellites like GOES-R to communication satellites serving other countries such as Japan and Canada. Mrs Humphrey is also Certified at Level 1 and Level 2 for Google Education Products.

Mrs Humphrey is passionate about showing students how their learning applies in the workplace as well as in their personal lives. She personally developed the electronic workstation layout in the shop, and strives to integrate learning technology where appropriate. Students are expected to learn how to manage their time and workload in order to prepare themselves for life beyond high school.
