POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Three years of traveling across Alaska, from big cities to small villages, partnering, learning, and growing alongside educators who’ve become true friends.

On Alaska Day, I’m grateful for every classroom, every community, and every person who welcomed me like their own.

Tagging the incredible Alaskan educators who make this work meaningful. ❤️ @mjmcalliwrites @an__ony @lauracdavies @aste_edtech

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”

Today, our hearts are completely full of gratitude for the corporations, global experts, and learning institutions that believed technology could turn young learners from passive media consumers into active digital creators.

We raise a toast of deep appreciation to our strategic partners for anchoring our tech tracks with nationwide reach, borderless collaborations, and critical digital citizenship frameworks. We are equally grateful to the exceptional global educators and authors who lent their invaluable expertise and mentorship to inspire our community.

Most importantly, to the visionary private schools, primary institutions, and administrators who welcomed the FLK LMS and future-skills frameworks into your classrooms—thank you for your unwavering trust and for choosing innovation.

We did not build this decade alone. We built it together. Cheers to 10 years of shared ambition and mutual growth!

What is future-ready workforce development without STEM?

We talk a lot about preparing students for the jobs of tomorrow, but are we truly connecting STEM, technology, and CTE in ways that create real opportunities?

I’m excited to join Troy Long & @actecareertech1 Urban Education Alliance for CTE Excellence as we unpack why the future of CTE is STEM and what that means for educators, leaders, and workforce development professionals.

I’ll be sharing lessons from our @stem_for_change initiative at @mckenziesadventures , discussing what’s working, where the gaps still exist, and how we can better prepare learners for a rapidly changing world.

🍎Back-to-school season is about so much more than a fresh start, new supplies, and a clean slate. It’s about building connections, embracing who you are, and opening yourself up to new friendships and experiences.

Inspired by @adobeforedu @adobeexpress new animated introduction activity, I’ll be using the “About Me” design this afternoon to introduce myself to a library full of 4th graders in El Paso, Texas.

🇵🇦From my cultural and ethnic heritage to my entrepreneurial spirit, I want students to see that our stories, identities, talents, and dreams are what make each of us unique.

Here’s to kicking off the school year with a touch of creativity, a celebration of diversity, and a commitment to inclusion.
