I taught in the building. Now I help schools handle AI.

Ten years in front of an ELA classroom, three running a district's innovation work, and a reading platform I built that's live in classrooms now. The AI professional development I wish someone had run for my own team.

▸ How we think about it

Most AI training stops at the bottom of the ladder.

Teachers can already ask a chatbot for a worksheet. That helps for a week. The teachers who get real time back are the ones who climb higher, directing AI to fit their own classroom and building tools they reuse all year. Here is the climb, and where the work actually pays off.

Where most people are today
1
Search Replacement
Using AI like a faster Google. A quick answer, a quick explanation. Almost everyone starts here.
2
Generator
Asking for a finished thing and taking the draft. A rubric, a quiz, an email. Useful, but generic, and you start over next week.

Most people never leave the bottom two. Everything that gives you real time back is in the climb above them.

▸ Also on the table

Other ways I can help with AI.

Bringing AI into student work

For teachers who want students using AI to go deeper, not to shortcut. The mechanics get handled so the work can climb to analysis and argument, with a straight answer on integrity.

Supporting leadership

Helping a leadership team think through how AI shows up across a building, from a policy you can stand behind to a sane rollout. Scoped to what you actually need.

▸ Behind the practice

A short bio.

Teaching · EdTech · Ops

A 20-year career across education and operations: ten years teaching in the classroom, three as a Director of Innovation, and the last seven running national-scale operations and events.

What I bring isn't elite engineering. It's having done the work, so I understand the problem before I build for it. A classroom teacher who ran a district's innovation work, then years of operations at scale. BookPulse and the J&J training are both real and in use.

Start with a conversation, not a contract.

Tell me what your staff's week actually looks like. I'll send back a short outline shaped around it, and we go from there. Most schools start with a single faculty session.
