About Me

I am an educator who started out as an English teacher. I have devoted my entire professional life to empowering students, teachers, and administrators to fully utilize their unique gifts and talents.

Presently, I serve as President of the New York State Association of Computers and Technology in Education (NYSCATE).

I have a passion for writing both fiction and non-fiction and I enjoy doing interactive workshops on “Leadership”. I have presented at NECC; the National Charter Schools Conference; National School Boards; IBM Palisades; as well as Tech Forum conferences in NYC; Chicago; and Austin, Texas.

My essay, “When the Classroom Door Swings Inward”, is part of the anthology, “Being Human at Work”; edited by Dr. Richard Strozzi-Heckler and published by North Atlantic Press.

I am a certified Master Somatic Coach and have designed and delivered many programs that support teachers, administrators and directors of technology in developing the skills they need to be more effective in their work and to have their technology vision embraced by those they serve.

I practice Aikido and I am a beginning yoga student.

I work with individual educators, district teams, and organizations to help them be the very best leaders and human beings they can be.
