Ride The DigiWave

I am a teacher at Gladstone Park Secondary College. I teach Mathematics and ICT from years 7 - 12. Along with my role as a teacher I am also the ICT Faculty Coordinator, SNR, Code Club coordinator, IT Manager, Learning Specialist and eLearning Coordinator at GPSC.

I have also been a Year 8 Level Coordinator at Gladstone Park Secondary College.

I have been involved with curriculum development within the ICT Faculty area as well as other faculty areas within GPSC to help to integrate ICT in a cross curriculum sense.

I have also taken courses in the use of O365 within schools and have successfully taught my peers and students at GPSC to use the software within their classes and their own teaching and learning.

Previously I worked as a Games Programmer for a studio called Iron Monkey studios. The company was associated with EA Games and I worked on handheld games for such devices as the iPhone for the games Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit and The Simpsons Arcade.

I have taken this passion and introduced my knowledge to classes within my current school with many more students taking up the programming discipline. I also started a coding club at the school which has seen students take part in coding tasks and creation of games in a group environment at lunchtimes.
