With my unique background as a trained educator and artist I found my way into educational technology where both these skills come into play. 60% of the world are visual learners and I use my expertise as a designer to influence the resources and instructional materials I share with others. My training as an educator can be seen in these materials as well as in my presentations and work with individuals and groups on learning technology.
