Teaching
I have taught computing for more than a decade, from working adult learners in Belize to undergraduate programmers at Florida A&M University.
My teaching centers on active and collaborative learning. I have used Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL), trained and worked with Learning Assistants, and used specifications grading and scenario-based mastery exams to assess what students can do rather than how many points they collect. These classroom experiences are the source of my research questions.

I taught Information Technology to students in grades 10 through 12 and tutored students for the Caribbean Secondary Examination Certificate (CSEC) in Information Technology.
Faculty development
I design and lead workshops that help faculty adopt active learning, including sessions on using AI in the university setting, collaborative learning design, working with Learning Assistants, augmented reality, and introductory coding. As an instructional designer at FSU's Office of Digital Learning, I now design courses for FSULearn, prepare courses for Quality Matters certification, and provide accessibility training.
