To contact me:

Welcome!  The purpose of this website is to equip teachers with the tools needed to use technology more effectively and efficiently in (and out of) the classroom.

It is my goal to assist each and every one of my customers in using technology to enrich the learning experiences of, not only the students, but also themselves.

As a former computer instructor at the high school level in Elmira, I was amazed at how much I learned from my students on a daily basis (often feeling slightly threatened and a bit inadequate).  However, once I got over that initial “tech-teacher-shock”, I was able to promote a learning environment that my students enjoyed and excelled in.  I look forward to learning more, teaching more, and applying the wonders of technology to the educational settings that I’m in, while judiciously limiting the hazards involved.
