Jul 2017 - Aug 2021
My titles: History Teacher, Digital Curriculum Designer, and Club Advisor to an award-winning Model UN team. Experiences: * Used design thinking and constructivist learning theory methods to develop interactive presentations, classroom activities, alternate reality simulations, assessments, and games to achieve learning objectives via in-person, hybrid, and eLearning modalities. * Honed content knowledge as a Subject Matter Expert in World and European History to meet school and departmental objectives through the design, development, implementation and evaluation of educational content for student learners (grades 9-12). * Led a student club (Model UN) and chaired a school wide self-analysis study (accreditation committee), both of which required determining the timeline and scope of tasks, delegating tasks to different stakeholders, and managing multiple tasks in a dynamic environment. * Designed hundreds of lesson plans, both individually and in collaboration with colleagues and external subject matter experts. Whenever possible, made custom graphics, audio, interactions, and games using multimedia platforms and tools (EdTech). * Ensured my content followed departmental and school guidelines (core values) in both tone and learning objectives, while maintaining almost complete freedom in teaching style, readings, and delivery method. * Re-Designed the Model UN program to feature a broad range of simulations and game-based activities to meet training objectives, increase club membership, and enhance skills necessary for competitive performance at conferences. After implementing, club membership doubled, participation in conferences tripled, and the club won more awards than the last five years combined. Programs include: Adobe Captivate, Adobe Indesign, Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Excel, iMovie, PearDeck, EdPuzzle, GimKit, Loom, and various other low-cost and free EdTech solutions.

The Wolfsonian-FIU is a museum, library, and research center in the Art Deco district of Miami Beach that focuses on the intersections between art and design, and the relations between cultural production and political ideology. Produced twenty-two blog entries (400-600 words), which were posted online through the Wolfsonian for it's Power of Design (PoD) Ideas Festival in March 2013. The theme of the festival was "Complaints," which I proposed to the Museum Director in Summer 2013. Blogs included interviews with academics and festival participants, general thought pieces, humorous stories, and more academically-oriented analyses.
