About Me
I am a Paramedic in MN and have been for close to 30 years. I have been a very active educator for many of those years. I also am a co-founder of a software company http://www.c3softworks.com that creates games for training. I have combined my experience in the classroom with software to find unique ways to deliver information in the classroom. I currently help other instructors through webinars and workshops on how to use games as a serious teaching tool. PLAY A SAMPLE GAME
