In addition to my responsibilities as media specialist and digital coach, I also taught two sections of AP Seminar, a course that is part of the AP Capstone program. In Seminar, I taught students critical thinking, critical reading, research, and public speaking skills.

As media specialist, I worked with both students and teachers. I taught classes and conducted professional development. I was also responsible for curating our collection and keeping an inventory of all media center holdings. As digital coach, I assisted both students and faculty in our 1:1 school with the use of technology for learning and professional growth.

After two+ years of working at the district level and being an integral part of the Digital Curriculum pilot, I decided that I wanted to return to a single-school setting to assist a school with the transition to digital curriculum. I took a position as an administrative dean, a position I held for one semester prior to becoming the school's curriculum resource teacher and digital coach, one which would allow me to work more closely with teachers, particularly with regard to instructional technology.In this position, I conducted professional development for faculty on topics ranging from data analysis to effective classroom strategies to instructional technology. I also mentored new teachers and assisted them with the certification process. I engaged in peer coaching to help new and experienced teachers develop best practices. As the digital coach, I conducted weekly Tech Tuesday professional development sessions and was responsible for our Student Tech Assistant program.

As a member of a five-person team, I designed trainings and created materials to share with schools throughout the county. Our primary focus was to assist teachers with integrating technology into their curriculum. I also worked with the Digital Steering Committee to help prepare Orange County to be compliant with Florida’s 2015-2016 shift to digital curriculum. I was an integral part of the team that oversaw cohort I of the OCPS digital pilot.

As a contractor with Canvas, I trained hundreds of OCPS teachers as we rolled out the Canvas LMS to all of our 19 high schools this summer. Initially, trainings were conducted face-to-face; however, after the pandemic began, these trainings were conducted as webinars.

I oversaw the school media center which included teaching classes and ordering books, magazines, databases, etc. I also instituted several literacy programs and started a voluntary monthly professional development program for teachers on instructional technology.

I taught English at all levels (regular, honors, IB, and AP) and for grades 10-12.
