I began teaching in 2008 as a second career; my background is in manufacturing and 3D modeling. I taught Project Lead the Way for four years at Jefferson HS in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Now, I am integrating technology into the middle school classes of the American School Foundation of Guadalajara in Mexico. At the beginning of the 2014 school year, I will be the technology integration specialist for our 1:1 Macbook program in 7th-12th grades. I love to travel, read, knit, and learn.
