Biography

I create and deliver computer science curricula to 7th and 8th grade students. We focus on computer hardware, logical thinking, basic coding (including using loops, conditional statements, variables, and functions), and data analysis. By the time students have taken both my 7th grade class and my 8th grade class, they are able to code in text-based languages.
