Permanent New York State Teaching Certification- Technology Education

My original career was residential construction & fine woodworking, then over ten years ago I changed careers to education and I became a teacher & taught 7th - 12th grades for 3 years. After that I became involved in educational technology and recently served for a little over a year as coordinator of technology for a school district of about 1600 students K - 12. My main background is with PCs and Windows, but for the past few months I have worked at a small school district that is 98% Macs, so I have learned a lot about the OSX platform as well.

I have grown weary of school district politics and am beginning a new career invloving keeping kids safe from drugs, fire, etc. But, I will always be a technologist at heart!
