About Me:

I am an educator and instructional designer, specializing in the use of new technologies to create innovative solutions to educational challenges. My interests include educational game design and mobile app development for informal learning. I have worked with the MIT Education Arcade and Learning Games Network to help bring more educational video games into K12 classrooms. Most recently, I designed an interactive tool to for a "flipped classroom" history lesson, and I am currently writing geometry-lesson questlines for The Radix Endeavor, a high school educational MMORPG. I recently graduated from the Harvard Graduate School of Education with a Master's of Education in Technology, Innovation, and Education.
