Being a learner inspired me to teach; being a teacher inspired me to explore “backstage” roles that enable faculty to deliver efficient, effective, and engaging learning experiences to their students. These interests are mirrored in the highlights of my education: a bachelor’s degree in teaching English and French language and literature; a master’s degree in adult education and distance learning; a doctoral degree in higher education leadership with research on the role of chief online education officer in the U.S.; various certifications in online instruction, design, and the administration of quality online programs; as well as the Institute for Emerging Leadership in Online Learning.
In my 10+ years of leadership, 10+ years of teaching, 10+ years of curriculum, and 10+ years of instructional design, I have seen education:
– in multiple formats (face-to-face, hybrid, and online)
– for multiple age groups (primarily adult learners)
– on multiple continents (Europe, Asia, and America)
– and from multiple vantage points (learner, tutor, teacher, instructor trainer, curriculum designer, instructional designer, team lead, academic program coordinator, national conference producer, director, school board officer, chief online education officer, national association board officer, etc.).
