Local curriculum, Digital fluency, Assessment for learning, STEAM, inquiry & project-based learning
Passionate about future-focused learning, I enjoy helping educators and education transition from traditional to student-led classrooms.

I also enjoy supporting students and teachers to come together to create, build and model what they are learning.
