| About Me | Hi! I’m Melissa from Mississippi. I have 24 years experience as an educator and 16 years experience as an Instructional Technologist. I’m Google Innovator, Trainer, Educator and an ambassador for BreakoutEDU, Book Creator, Microsoft Flip, and Wakelet. I’m also a Code.org CSF Facilitator and a member of Mississippi’s Elementary Task Force for Computer Science. I love to present, share, and learn all things ed tech (and beyond), especially on the elementary level. I’m the proud mother of two daughters who are now both in college. |
