Hello ETEC 586!

I received my B.S. in Communications and M.S. in Instructional Technology and Educational Studies and Ed.S. in Teacher Education from the University of Tennessee. I am currently an adjunct lecturer for the College of Education.

I will begin my my 9th year as a Pre-K-8 technology teacher. She is passionate about educating teachers and other education specialists on meaningful ways to integrate technology into their curriculum. She is very interested in using Blended learning techniques, multimedia and gamification in K-12 classrooms. She has presented numerous regional conferences on using coding, Google Apps, augmented reality and other types of technology in your classroom.

Motto: Begin with the end clearly defined! 

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and 12 year-old son. I also like to garden, cook and travel.
