During my career as a teacher I've worked with a variety of partners on a range of issues in education. I've served on the Bill and Melinda Gates Teacher Advisory Panel, taught the first two summers of Karlie Kloss's Kode with Klossy JavaScript courses, and participated in BetterLesson's first Blended Learning master teacher program .

For the last half of the decade I've worked for organizations promoting access to high-quality education in the computer science sector. Since 2015, I've been an instructor for Upperline School of Code (since acquired by GiantMachines) in New York, designing and teaching courses in software engineering, data science, and machine learning, while also building and maintaining their teacher onboarding platform.

In 2018, I served as the principal designer on the Google team that published the machine learning and cloud computing pathways for Google's Tech Dev Guide . My work here ties heavily into my interests to curate freely available content into easy-to-use learning guides.

More recently, I built and launched a PostgreSQL, Node, Express, and React course for collegiate computer science students that were participating in the SITE program hosted by Codepath.org .

The curriculum is composed of video lessons, learning labs, and weekly projects, puncuated by engaging activities such as the SQLChallenges.io site I built into the scope and sequence.

Built with Gatsby.js and custom React components build into MDX -flavored markdown, the mini-app is designed to teach students SQL by solving real-word, data-focused puzzles. Besides the custom, browser-based editor, the rest of the application is powered by an actual in-memory SQLite database ported to the client using WebAssembly, and pre-loaded with interesting datasets sourced from Kaggle .
