Biography

“When I was in high school, I wasn’t proficient in mathematics.  My counselors, teachers and advisors all told me that I wouldn’t do well in computer science because I had to be good at math.  So I resolved to not be good at math and everything that went along with it. 

At college, I floundered.  I wasn’t sure what field to choose.  I liked computers.  Loved hearing about them, talking about them.  But I wasn’t good in math, so computers weren’t for me.   But my interest in computers and technology drew me to the computer labs.  It was there that I saw my first computer program.  Laying in the trash, on that old line printer paper were lines and lines of code.  I took one and explored. I even understood it.  The only math I saw was adding and subtracting.  And only adding and subtracting by the number 1! 

“That’s not hard math!  I can do that!”, I thought to myself.   

And I signed up for my first computer science class. 

Since that day I’ve spent my life and career in the computer technology  field.  But it wasn’t until I started working in the education sector and earning my masters in Technology Education, did I realize that my true passion is dedicated to the phrase, “Everyone can learn”.  I’ve learned to love mathematics and love learning through technology.  I love sharing that knowledge.  And learned that if you have a passion for something, don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t pursue it.”
