Hello! Just wanted to introduce myself. I am a staff development coordinator who works with 8 different districts to support their district initiatives and planning. Over the past several years, technology integration, social networking, and 21st century skills have become a passion of mine. I can't get enough! While I have taught myself a great deal of what I know, I would not be where I am without the incredible learning from others with whom I have connected digitally. I am excited to have come across this network of motivated educators and look forward to learning and growing together.
