Universities Attended Pepperdine University Doctorate in Education 2006 – current Pepperdine University Masters of Science 2001 University of Massachusetts Bachelors of Science 1997 Long Beach City College Associate of Arts 1995 Fields of study, majors and areas of concentration Educational Technology- I am interested in various ways educators can bridge the gap between how youth use technology today and how technology is used in the classroom. Web 2.0 provides an array of tools that can be integrated meaningfully into classroom instruction. I have also worked for ten years in a Title I elementary school where the digital divide is prevalent. As the GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) coordinator for the school district, I helped move the GATE program from an after school program to a hybrid online program. In the past five years, over 200 GATE students from six elementary schools learn together online. Education- The last ten years of my teaching career has been spent teaching elementary school. I teach in a school that has adopted a “full inclusion” model where students with special needs are part of the general education classroom and support services are provided in the general education setting in the least restrictive environment. I regularly implement SDAIE strategies for English Learners and I serve as the technology coordinator for the school. This is also my fifth year being a master teacher to student teachers from Cal State Fullerton, Cal State Long Beach and National University. In addition to teaching elementary school, I also teach at National University and Pepperdine University in the Education department. I teach classes in the Masters in Educational Technology program as well as the Teacher Credential program. The classes I teach focus on integrating technology into teaching, technology leadership, curriculum design, and online learning. Leadership- Since 2004, I have been working with youth in Nepal on an initiative called the Youth Managed Resource Center. I help run Community Development Network, a US based non-government organization, that mentors, trains and leads youth technology leaders in Nepal. Management- In the summer of 2004, I was the director of a school in Shanghai, China where I led and managed 30 teachers from the US. The teachers taught English to 700 Chinese students ranging from kindergarten to twelfth grade.
