Teaching, music, reading, the outdoors, doing good work, my family, and my dog!

Always focusing on ways in which to get kids thinking about where they fit in the world.

I first realized my TEDx future when I attended a conference in which a TEDx facilitator spoke to us about how she designs her own club at her school, and hosts TEDx events for the community with her students. I knew immediately that my students would be a perfect fit to present TEDx events. TEDx Youth@SELS students have presented for two years on topics they are experts on, and have received powerful feedback from the community on their topics.

Listening. Dreaming big.
