I am also a former public affairs fellow through the highly selective Coro Foundation, taught college courses, and continue to learn and grow in the field of educational technology.
Prior to my current employment position, I worked in a college setting providing students with learning differences reasonable accommodations, including the development of appropriate assistive technology plans.
