Bio
I bring nearly 20 years of experience in education as a teacher, instructional coach, and specialist in grades K-12 in public schools and charter schools from Washington State, Florida, North Dakota, and Utah. I've taught taught English/Language Arts in grades 7-11, including Creative Writing and Journalism, and am currently a Secondary English Language Arts, AI, and ML Specialist in Canyons School District. Prior to my career in education, I worked as a screenwriter in Los Angeles where I would often be asked to guest teach screenwriting at a local high school. It was in these classrooms that I discovered my passion in supporting students to tell their own stories, a passion that continues through today in working daily to empower students so they can say something back to the world.
I'm passionate about
Working with kids, stories, voices, equity, exploring the outdoors, AI in education, fly fishing, home brewing, being a Dad
An idea worth spreading
see humanity; share humanity
