Had an amazing time! Hopefully we’ll be able to jump on Fast & Furious next year. These cupcakes are delicious by the way.

Stranger Things SPOILERS! I wanted to see what NotebookLM would do. There are some misspellings, but it was definitely interesting to see what it came up with. Part of my instructions included aging the kids as the seasons progressed, but that didn't really work out.

This past Friday, I was a chaperone for my son's field trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. While there, I had an idea: could I take pictures while I was at the aquarium, upload them to Google NotebookLM, and create an infographic roadmap of our journey? This is what it came up with. #Teachers

My goal for my 14th year in education: elevate my 2020 Google Innovator project. My passion project originally focused on creating a sense of belonging in schools - I'm now exploring how AI can help. I’m grateful for the insight I’ve gained from educators leading the AI conversation. #EduSky

I’m #notatcue this year - first time in a while… 😔 But I just concluded an awesome 2-day CAST institute hosted by Monterey COE’s Maria Parker and Robin Mendenhall, collaborated with Carrie Sebora, and found out that one of my students became a teacher! Woohoo! #EduSky

It's done. First post was in 2015. Account deleted in 2025. Original Twitter was the best - it was my go-to for everything, but it turned into something else. 10 years was invested into this platform. However, there's a great sense of relief to get away from X for many different reasons. #EduSky

At school, students say “I like your Costco hoodie!” I reply with “Thanks. It’s the new Supreme!” What they don’t know is that I’m actually taking advantage of “wearable reminders”. 🤣

That’s a wrap! My first in-person Fall CUE has come to a close, and it couldn’t have been a better event for me to present for the first time at a CUE conference. I’m privileged to be surrounded by such incredible educators and they all contribute to the evolution of a better “me”. #edusky

This is my 12th year in education, and I can honestly say that this profession is more of "an answer to a calling" than it is a "career". Thank you to all the amazing teachers who strive to make a positive impact every day! #ThankYouTeachers #TAW2024 #GoogleEdu #EduSky

Thank you Google for Education for letting me explore the #ChromebookPlus! The specs, built-in features, and price tag that these Chromebooks have are perfect for a district-wide rollout! And with ChromeOS Flex available to breathe new life into your older machines, seems like a win to me. #edusky
