2019-2020 is my 16th year in education. I left the classroom after 11 years of teaching the entire spectrum of high school ELAR. Currently, I am an iTeam Lead in Instructional Technology for Richardson ISD. This fall is my fifth year in this position. Other things I am proud of: G Suite for Education Certified Trainer, Flipgrid Student Voice Ambassador, Seesaw Ambassador, Wakelet Ambassador, and EdTechTeam Blogger. I am incredibly idealistic and passionate about education. I believe students hold more power than many realize. Someday, the system will be better. In the meantime, teachers are key in making certain students experience success and become empowered through their learning.
