About

I took this photo at UAF’s Georgeson Botanical Gardens in August, 2015.

My WordPress site was originally created for the course ED F654 Digital Citizenship, but will now house all of my ONID courses that I can transfer here. As I am a work in progress, so is this site.

Brief bio:

Currently I am a student in the Master of Education program with a concentration in Online Innovation and Design (ONID) at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.Thus my site logo says ‘ONID’.

History. I moved to Alaska in 1978, the day after graduating with a B.S. Ed. degree from college. I was fortunate to immediately begin teaching business courses at Palmer High School. After moving to the Fairbanks area due to involvement in placer gold mining in remote areas, I taught as an adjunct faculty for Tanana Valley Community College, which is now UAF’s Community and Technical College. I am currently an Associate Professor in the Applied Business and Applied Accounting programs, but also teach courses for Computer Information and Office Technology. I have four grown sons, several grandchildren and recently adopted my 8 year old granddaughter.
