I have experience with writing intended to catch the eye and imagination through extensive experience writing educational content. I also have extensive experience writing, editing and proofreading in various other contexts. I worked for several months recently as an educational content writer on a project developing science and computer science aligned curriculum for preschool and early elementary students to complete with their parents at home. I taught for five years at the elementary school level, and at the preschool level for about two years. Both positions required significant amounts of writing and editing of various types. I have been writing in other situations for many years as well. As a high school student I entered and won several writing contests for short story, poetry and brief articles. In undergrad I produced the newsletter for our Department of Education, which included writing articles, editing articles, photography and graphic design. During my masters program I helped design and edit resumes for several fellow teaching candidates, measurably increasing the interviews offers they received. I continue to write and design educational material from home on a regular basis for my shop in the online store Teachers Pay Teachers. For the last two years I have also done writing and design work on a volunteer basis for my church. I majored in Elementary Education in my undergrad, with a concentration in English Literature and a minor in Art. I then earned my Master's in Curriculum and Instruction through the University of Denver with a concentration in Gifted & Talented Education. I am certified to teach Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education (K-6), Secondary English Language Arts (7-12), and am a Gifted and Talented Specialist (P-12). My personal interests include gaming, cooking, home decoration, child development, pets, photography, movies/tv (fantasy/sci-fi, anime, superhero) and reading (fantasy/sci-fi literature, classic literature, children's literature, mommy articles).
