Educator, keynote speaker, consultant, & author passionate about leveraging technology to empower every voice.
► I work with schools, districts, teachers and leaders around the world to help them discover how to leverage edtech within their setting to create more inclusive, equitable, and empowering classrooms for every student to find their voice, build their confidence, and take ownership of their learning. Aligned with my Tech with Heart message, my approach is very personalized – a tool is only a tool until it is part of a solution. My goal is to help educators & leaders start by identifying a problem or desired learning outcome and then leading them to edtech that can best serve them.
► I partner with edtech companies to provide feedback on product development and to create content, such as videos, articles, resources, & training. My YouTube channel has 3M views.
► I am author of Tech with Heart: Leveraging Technology to Empower Student Voice, Ease Anxiety, & Create Compassionate Classrooms.
► My work has been featured in USA Today, The Washington Post, CNN, and PBS Newshour.
► My biggest goal is to empower educators with ideas and simple tech tools to cultivate deeper compassion in the classroom and provide each learner the optimal platform to express their ideas in a format that best fits their learning style.
