2 years ago, I was chosen to work on a new team charged with enrolling new and legacy iPads into AirWatch (an MDM). Duties have included creating an iPad Blog for teachers and users and iPad Resources site for technicians, configuring and enrolling iPads, providing support as well as offering training sessions throughout the county (at schools and at the Ed Centre).For the past 17 years, I have worked with students, teachers, educational consultants and administrators to help them to embed technology in their teaching practice. My main role is to demonstrate, recommend and provide resources for software and specialty hardware (such as SMART Board, Video Conferencing, Special Education Assistive Technology) and much more. Over the past 6 years, after receiving my Bachelor of Education from York University, I have spent a great deal of time recommending web resources and software solutions in order to assist teachers to gain a deeper understanding of the benefits of digital learning to students of all ages. Seminars and training ranges from website design and maintenance to the use of OSAPAC licensed software to individuals, small groups and large groups.

For over 20 years, I worked in the graphic arts industry in sales, management and eventually as a Sales and Marketing Director in the Paper Distribution Industry. As a Marketing Director, I was responsible for created and implementing effective marketing programs for a variety of paper and graphic arts products that were distributed by Graphic Papers/Les Papiers Graphiques. I worked with ad agencies and designers to design advertising and marketing materials; arranged booths and demonstrations at Trade Shows; negotiated with suppliers from around the world for product and promotional integration; and coordinated cross-Canada meetings with sales staff from all of our branches. Through direct contact and sales staff I kept close connections with graphic designers, advertising agencies, printers and other customers (such as retail sales outlets), in order to increase sales and profits.
