My name is Brenny Kummer and I am the Coordinator of Instructional Technology for Bartholomew Consolidated School Corporation in Columbus, Indiana. With Universal Design for Learning serving as the district instructional framework in her home district, I have a passion for Universal Design for Learning, inclusion, and accessibility. I have experience hosting UDL visitors as a classroom teacher and speaking about UDL at the state, national, and international level (BCSC UDL events, CAST-UDL events, COSN, ISTE, UDL-IRN Great Lakes, and the UDL-IRN International Summit). Prior to my role in technology, I taught social studies at the secondary level in a full-inclusion classroom (of students with significant, intensive needs). I have a Master's in Educational Technology from the University of Arkansas and received the award of 2021 Arkansas Educational Technology student of the year.

In my role in the technology realm, I bridge the gap between technology and classroom instruction. I seek to identify technology solutions to help further Universal Design for Learning (UDL) implementation and inspire innovative learning. I also coordinates eLearning (virtual learning) days and blended learning initiatives for the district.

In her spare time, I enjoy running, reading, traveling, and spending time with family and her two Siberian huskies.
