It appears I really like to talk! I've been presenting for a long time and I truly enjoy it. Attending conferences is one of my favorite ways to get new information, meet new friends, and share ideas with colleagues.

I'm retired, but I still enjoy talking with people about online learning, technology, and teaching. I'm also asked quite a bit about the use of AI in education, especially around the LMS and online learning, and I'm happy to talk about that too. I wrote a white paper on it, Teach the Tool, if you'd like to see where I'm coming from. If you'd like me to speak, mentor, or just trade ideas, you can find me on LinkedIn.
