More About Me

I'm a 20th year public school teacher in New Jersey. I taught K & 1 in my first district for 3 years. Then in my current district, I taught technology in a traditional computer lab & transitioned our program from 1 mobile cart, to shared carts, to currently 1:1 with a Chromebooks. The last 3 years my position merged to also include the Enrichment & Gifted programs along with my existing STEM program that's been in place for about 6 yrs. I became a connected educator in 2017 & I'm a better teacher/person because of it. I love ed tech & use it daily, I basically will try & do anything to keep my learners engaged & creating!
