      • Identified the potential of Kuta Software to transform our approach to mathematics education. Taking the lead, I championed the integration of this tool into our teaching methods, successfully facilitating its adoption throughout the entire Math Department, streamlined lesson planning, and enhanced our ability to deliver engaging, efficient math instruction, significantly contributing to the department's overall educational excellence. • In my ongoing commitment to prepare students for the evolving demands of the modern workforce, I led a substantial modernization of the Statistics curriculum at Pacifica Christian High School. Recognizing the growing importance of data science in various industries, I incorporated the use of industry-standard data science tools and techniques into our teaching strategy. Now, our curriculum includes hands-on training with Pandas, Numpy, Seaborn, Scikit-Learn, and Git. This innovative shift not only empowers our students with practical, in-demand skills, but also positions our department at the forefront of progressive, relevant education in Statistics. Show less
