I am a professional educator who recently retired from teaching in public schools. In the middle of my professional career, I spent 19 years employed by an international educational software company as a senior professional development specialist. Throughout my career I have taught in every grade level Kindergarten through graduate studies. In addition, I developed educational professional development for teachers through school superintendents. I am comfortable presenting to or teaching with all ages. An additional opportunity allowed me to develop and present programs to grandparents who were raising their grandchildren. Finally, I was fortunate to be given an opportunity to present to teachers and/or inmates in prisons. The audiences included maximum security facilities for juveniles convicted of murder or rape and medium security for adults convicted of non-violent felonies.
