Leaping out of the classroom and the role of department chair was a leap of faith. I cannot believe it has been 5 years since I joined the team at ALI. It's been exciting to help districts, schools, and teachers find the right tools to fit their STEM needs, all while moving from inside, to hybrid, and in 2024 to a field sales position. Every year has brought new challenges, especially with COVID in the mix. I am excited to see what 2025 has in store for me!
