Central Florida 

Kindergarten Teacher with four years of experience teaching in Title l schools. 




Technology plays a large role in my daily life. I use a smartphone, laptop, xbox gaming console, and "smart" appliances throughout my day and home.

In my classroom, I enjoy using a wide variety of educational technology. I use interactive whiteboards, presentation softwares (Microsoft/Google), document camera, video conferencing, and adaptive learning software.
