I was teaching in 2020 when the world shut down. During this time I became interested in how the other industries were adapting to the change since the education field was stuck in its old ways. When I began to read about Agile I knew immediately that this would change the world of education and update it for our students, teachers and parents. 

In education, the biggest challenge is creating software that can be individualized. Students do not need any more rote memorization or repeated tasks. They need chances to push their thinking and be creative and innovative. 

The ability of AI to adapt and change is incredible. I am excited to see what will emerge in the area of edtech to improve learning in the coming years. 

I am passionate about building better learning systems to provide opportunities to all children to learn the skills necessary to succeed in an ever-evolving world. The traditional approaches to education no longer prepare our students for their futures. By integrating Agile into the classroom students can learn in K-12 the skills that industries currently spend billions of dollar on for learning and development. 

The key take away from our session is that educational systems CAN change, through small purposeful actions that can have HUGE results on the lives of our children and the future of our world. 

There are so many sessions with incredible range. I am excited to learn from professionals across the field to update and stretch my way of thinking. 

Thank you for welcoming people from other industries. This has been a generous community that is working hard to improve the world for all of us!
