After spending 15 years in the classroom sharpening my knowledge of pedagogical approaches, project based learning, and educational technology, I began working for i-Tech. I found a place where I can focus on supporting teachers, raising them up, and helping them with the unbelievable amount of work they have on their plates. In my role as the Educational Design & Strategy Lead I continue to help teachers through coaching, workshops, professional development, co-teacher, and content creation. I also support our larger team of educational designers as well as our school leaders. I'm incredibly blessed to be in a role the supports and raises the tide for schools all over the state of Florida.
