I am an author, instructional designer, retired educator, and E-RYT 200/RYT-500 Yoga Alliance–certified instructor passionate about supporting both intellectual growth and holistic well-being.

With more than 20 years in education, I served as a teacher, facilitator, and instructional designer across K–12, higher education, and adult learning. I’ve co-authored several books on instructional strategies, including Instructional Models: How to Choose One, How to Use One, The 12 Touchstones of Good Teaching, and Classroom Instruction That Works, 2nd ed.

Today, my work bridges thoughtful teaching and mindful living, grounded in a BSEd in Education and an MA in Information and Learning Technologies.
