Additional biographical information

I've been teaching K12 CS and Engineering for 4 years now and I love it! In a previous life I was a corporate software engineer and I occasionally taught Higher Ed as an Adjunct. I have a structured but creative approach to teaching coding with an emphasis on project based learning and thinking outside of the box. Creativity, innovation and self confidence are always encouraged.
