Speaking Curriculum Vitae

Below is a list of experiences that speak to my abilities as a speaker, facilitator, and curriculum developer.  My underlying philosophy as an educator is oriented in transformational learning theory.  I take a person centered, real life approach while ensuring all topics reflect current research (but may challenge "best practice").
