I support students in building clarity, confidence, and strong problem-solving skills so they can learn with purpose and independence. I've taught from 1st grade through graduate school, and I especially enjoy helping learners work through the thinking process behind coding, technology, AI (augmented intelligence), and vocation & life design. My teaching blends personalized learning with human performance principles, using a process-oriented, guided-inquiry approach. Students learn by asking questions, testing ideas, and exploring concepts in a structured way that strengthens critical thinking and resilience. I focus on helping them understand how they think so they can make sense of challenges and apply their skills in school, work, and life. My background includes a PhD focused on how students actually learn and how to design for skill development and mastery, along with computer science and education degrees. I also served in the Navy and Wisconsin Army National Guard.
