#rva after a long time away. symmetrically degreed (ba, ma, mba)
teacher, recovering marketer

a few years ago, I decided it was time to dig into a long percolating interest in teaching. I signed up to be a substitute teacher in several towns around Boston. most education peeps will tell that subbing is not really teaching. I persevered, and eventually landed longer-term gigs with a bilingual school in cambridge (spring 2020, so fully remote) and at wellesley middle school. A road trip in the summer of 2022 led to a relocation to the rva where I completed requirements for my “official” teaching license while teaching math.

in my previous life, I explored the intersection of technology and communications from the first days of the world wide web. I created my first client website in 1995 for a vermont state agency and never looked back. the peak was when I served as an account director for an interactive marketing agency.

I helped clients amplify messaging to expand reach across new and traditional channels. inbound marketing & social media. direct and electronic mail, telemarketing & advertising. I still dabble, if it catches my interest.
