Presentations/Projects

I have enjoyed working a great deal with schools, both presenting and consulting on moving forward and creating innovative environments for all learners in the community. I have worked with students, parents, educators, school administration, central office administration, as well as school trustees. I believe that creating an open and connected environment in our schools, we are creating learning opportunities for our students that will help them be leaders in the future, as well as today.

Here is a list of some recent presentations and/or conferences that I have done in my professional career. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
