what happens here
Welcome to my digital hub! This space is designed to aid in the digital curation of my work as an educator in K-12 and post-secondary settings. My work sits at intersections of literacies and teacher education as I explore innovative approaches to teacher learning across professional trajectories. I'm interested in how teachers learn through writing, how teachers learn to teach writing, and how to explore these questions in the digital age. Within this portfolio, I have highlighted projects of interest, showcased samples of student work, and designed resources to share with my students, colleagues, and larger communities of practice.

"For preservice teachers, By preservice Teachers" is the motto of this grassroots undergraduate research team. From 2014-2017, I had the opportunity to lead a fabulous group of COE students in the design of professional learning experiences for preservice and practicing teachers. Our work focused on intentional lesson design for digital literacies and technology tools through a collaborative experience of peer mentorship.  Visit our website for more information about our projects and collaborations.
This site highlights the work of preservice teachers at UW-Madison as they explored multimodal meaning-making through digital book projects. To learn more about the project process or to access resources for crafting response to text digital book projects in the K-12 classroom, visit the following resources:
