Awards & shining teacher moments

I have spoken at several conferences including the U.S, Department of State's Global Teaching Conference, the Learning Forward conference, the AAGC gifted conference, and at Florida Atlantic University. I am a Fulbright Scholar who participated in a U.S.Department of State exchange to the Republic of Georgia as part of the Teachers for Global Classrooms program. I recently received a grant from the U.S. Department of State that combined English Language Art standards with technology skills. Through this opportunity, my students learned how to write and design video games based on the concept of mitigating climate change.
