If you’ve found your way to this site, then you’ve found your way to a place that’s about progress, not perfection. So whether you want to be inspired by new ideas or be mindful about practice, these blogs will meet you in that space. And on the days you want to be bold by trying something new, this postcard-length blog will celebrate those everyday adventures.


It is with great passion and humility that I enter this work. Already, I’m looking forward to learning with you in this ever-growing classroom: Open Teaching.
DO YOU NEED A SPEAKER?
My keynote presentations are authentic and grounded in classroom practice. Whether it’s to an audience of 10 or 10,000 I customize each talk with a dedication to inspiring and empowering every group I work with.
