Fifteen years making technology work inside schools

From Teach for America in South LA, to one of China's first 1:1 iPad programs, to directing 50+ EdTech projects across 18 countries at Team4Tech with partners including Adobe, Salesforce, and Zoom — my work has always been about making technology serve teachers and learners. Today I lead academic technology at a leading independent school and teach AP Environmental Science.
