About Me.

Learning has always been my passion. As a corporate trainer turned educator, I have held several different hats. However, the common denominator has always been learning. I have designed courses and facilitated training for adult learners as well as learners from K-12. My experience in both the corporate field and education has allowed me the unique opportunity to develop learning experiences from several different perspectives. Thus, creating effective successful learning outcomes.  

Professional Experience.

As a former K-12 Technology Applications teacher, I enhanced the learning environment by designing e-learning projects that allowed each learner to curate digital learning artifacts and publish their work online. I worked collaboratively with colleagues to create interactive content and learning objectives tailored to each learner's unique profile, allowing them to progress at their own pace.  

In my current professional role as a Educational Technology Specialist, I identify and evaluate appropriate technology software and devices to utilize in an educational setting. I manage various learning management systems (LMS), student response systems, multimedia resources, and other software applications. I provide technical training and support to staff and students. I troubleshoot devices and stay current with emerging technology. I maintain organizational technology policies and procedures ensuring compliance.
