Bio:
I have been teaching in a technology-mediated environment since the days of HyperCard and teach classes in history, online student success, and how to be a health care IT trainer. I am the distance education coordinator at Cosumnes River College and a facilitator for the Online Network of Educators. In 2019 I was awarded Canvas Educator of the Year. Every day I learn more about Canvas.
