Modern-day explorer, Educator, Web Developer, and Disney Fan.
Trekking through a mountain of endless Google searches, books, articles, StackOverflow posts, and colleagues, I have found my passion in learning everything I can know about anything. I believe that exploration and adventure is the heart of deep learning, and as a classroom teacher I design instructional content that positions students to learn to be an explorer. While primarily serving as the Music Technology teacher and Associate Director of Bands at Lanier High School in Sugar Hill, GA, and I am grateful that I have the opportunity to work with professionals across the globe to instill just a little sense of adventure, exploration, and discovery into the next generation of modern-day explorers.
