Introduction & About Me

✋Welcome!  

I've decided to create this blog to share out the knowledge and information I've learned.

I am fortunate to be Technology Integration Specialist in my school district and I truly 💖 helping teachers improve the use of technology to enhance the educational experience for their students.

I taught 5th grade (ELA & SS) from August 2001 until the end of the 2010/2011 school year when I switched to 7th & 8th grade Social Studies.  I taught full-time in the classroom until October 2015 when I began splitting my day between Technology Integration for the two elementary buildings in our district and continuing to teach SS at the middle school.  I began Technology Integration full-time for our 2 elementaries at the start of the 2016/2017 school year.  I love every minute!

📚 Education Background:

• Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (1-8) from the University of Dayton 
• Master's of Quality Schools from Graceland University
• Google Certified Educator Levels 1 & 2 

And I continue to learn via webinars, readings, blogs, podcasts, and so much more. I have another blog where I write more details about topics or activities or ways of using these resources. I'd love for you to check it out @
