​​With years of experience as a classroom teacher, building administrator, and CTO, I bring unique perspectives and insight to my writing.

Staying abreast of the K12 and higher education technology space and developing deep relationships with industry, district, and higher ed leaders, my work reflects the challenges and successes we face to ensure our students have the best educational experience.

Writing for national publications, software companies, and non-profit organizations, my work focuses on edtech topics that span from literacy to student safety.

Whether white papers, eBooks, op-eds, or website content, I work with clients to produce quality, highly-read content that supports the organization’s goals and mission.
