I began my career working at the university level in adult education and the President's Office, while also working with 7th-12th grade students with behavioral issues in an alternative school. I have served as the Director of Educational Technology for a private, 1:1 high school and also at the district level as an instructional technology and web specialist for a low-income, public school district in Ohio. My passion for technology in education brought me to Forward Edge, where I oversee the C and I team. Currently, I also serve as the Outgoing President of the EdTech Coaches Network for ISTE, Co-Leader of GEG Ohio and I am a Google Certified Innovator and Trainer.
I’ve been in education for seven years, and most recently, I had the privilege of teaching 7th grade Language Arts at Norwood Middle School while serving as one of the Technology Integration Specialists for the district. Before that, I worked with juniors and seniors as a special education teacher at two other local high schools. But, no matter where I’ve been, one of my biggest priorities has been championing instructional technology in the classroom. My passion for education opened the door to my current role at Forward Edge, and I’m both an Apple Teacher and a certified Level 1 & 2 Google Educator.

I served as a Technology Coordinator and Consultant with the Ohio Region 14 State Support Team for about 10 years, specializing in educational technology, assistive technology, and Universal Design for Learning. I previously taught at both the high school and college levels. For over ten years, I have presented at local, regional, state, and national events on effective implementation of educational technology to benefit diverse learners. I have a Google Administrator Certification and the Google Educator Levels 1 and 2 Certifications.
