Invite me to speak

I am an engaging and entertaining speaker. I bring insightful, common-sense, down-to-earth observations about technology and education. I tie current educational theory and research to "boots on the ground" experience to create helpful and practical presentations. For a list of my previous speaking engagements, press interviews, and awards, please look at the front page of my site. If you'd like to contact me, contact me
