Content for Educators and Learners
So much time in the classroom is designed strictly for learning content. As I continue to learn personally and professionally, it is clear to me that there are other aspects of learning that are deeply personal and non-content specific. These ideas such as; learning how to learn, managing information and creating ethical products are typically left out of K-12 curriculums. My goal as a content creator is to share the journey I am on and the lessons I am learning as I try to make my classroom the best environment for all learners of the 21st century.

Letting Go of Social Media
The year of 2020 and beginning 2021 amplified the influence of social media on advocacy for one's personal views. There are many cause I would be keen to throw my support around and wish those movements much success (social justice movements, specifically) On the contrary, there are other movements to which I detest. As a primarily a consumer of content on social media sites, it was often hard to ignore those positions to which I felt held no place in today's society. With even more of this in 2021, I was moved to step away from social media until I found what I wanted from the platforms.

Seeking Discovery
My move to the west allowed me to discover activities that were beyond my previous realm of possibility. This new environment made it easy to access those previously undiscovered endeavors and pursue the joy they provide. In an effort to continue to embrace new possibilities, I am trying to be more open to activities that would allow me to engage with my environment and find joy in the growth process.
