and I'm the technology teacher at Shepherd of the Hills Christian School in Centennial, CO.
I have a heart and passion for technology and for educational ministry for our Lord Jesus Christ.
This blog is a natural result of these unique interests. I have 20 years of teaching experience in Lutheran schools, the last five exclusively as a technology teacher.
I seek to use the talents that God has given me to enhance His Kingdom in new, exciting, and creative ways, utilizing the technology tools with which we have been blessed to enhance ministry for Christ.
