Hey all! I am a former teacher turned instructional designer. Now, I create eLearning and training videos for businesses. I am a leading voice in the transitioning teachers community on LinkedIn and routinely share my experiences through that platform and here on YouTube. I run this channel to highlight key topics and questions about the transitioning teachers movement, instructional design, provide general career advice, and comment on any other topic that catches my interest. Hope that I am able to impart some wisdom here and there!
