PROFILE
Since I got out of the Navy in 1997, I have dedicated my life to teaching. I
have been a classroom teacher and coach for 17 years and have used my
experience to provide educational leadership to teachers focusing on
integrating technology into their curriculum. Over the years, I have developed
a teaching philosophy that creates an environment that encourages
learning and prepares students for the future by applying technology to
relevant content. My instructional designs include a universal design that
reaches all types of learning styles.
