I worked as the Director of the Center for Teaching and Professional Development at Sonoma State University since 2004, with over 20 years teaching experience in Educational Technology, Teacher Education and Kinesiology. In addition to teaching, I have served in leadership roles in multiple state and national projects, such as Building the Digital Bridge, Light Bridge, EnACT and Access by Design. The primary focus of these projects has been on faculty development, effective and innovative uses of instructional technology, and supporting students with disabilities. I also served as Coordinator of the Accessible Technology Initiative for Sonoma State University, and am Past-President of the California State University, Faculty Development Council. Most recently, I have been involved in leadership in faculty development efforts, as related to Universal Design for Learning and Transforming Course Design. These particular projects have involved the use of Faculty Learning Communities for the identification of Threshold Concepts and course redesign toward a more effective teaching and learning relationship between instructors and students. In relation to these efforts, I have personally developed, and overseen the development of, multimedia online resources with a high degree of usability and sustainability. Finally, I am actively engaged in research, publication and dissemination, as related to faculty development and instructional technology. Topics cover a broad range of pedagogical topics, educational uses of technology, as well as developing effective online resources for broader implementation. Related presentations and consultations have been at the national and international level, including North America, South America, Middle East, and Asia.
