I Create Relevant, Engaging, & Enduring Learning Experiences

Adapting session materials and content to the audience is key. My professional learning sessions are designed to meet people where they are then extend their understanding. Sessions include time for peer collaboration and co-learning. I also create session resources that are useful long after the session ends. Over the last three years I've refined my ability to produce high quality resources using Generative AI tools and share my methods with teachers and students in formal and informal learning sessions.
