Summary

Former educator and instructional coach with over 15 years of international experience, driven by a deep belief in the power of technology and innovation to transform learning. As a teacher, I consistently championed the integration of educational technology and STEAM into the classroom, while also serving as a coach and trainer to support fellow educators in implementing these tools effectively. Now, I am ready to take on a more challenging role in the field of Adult Learning and Development, where I can merge my strengths in curriculum design, training delivery, and coaching to create impactful learning experiences that drive growth and performance in organizational settings.
