A little about me:
I live on the Oregon coast with my wife and kids, 2 cats, 1 duck and 3 chickens. I have been a classroom teacher since 2019, primarily for history, government and geography classes.
I love figuring out ways to make learning interesting and fun. Please let me know if you have any ideas for class activities or lessons!
My hobbies are spending time with family, working on vehicles, projects around the house, playing games (board or video), and anything related to Lord of the Rings.
At Pearson, we are committed to ensuring authenticity in the portrayal of protected characteristics, including race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, social class, geographical location, religious beliefs and disability in all our content, in line with our Editorial policy. We go beyond authenticity, and strive to ensure social justice, that is whatever we produce aims to enable all to achieve their potential, and reflects and meets the needs of all individuals in the communities we serve. Individuals from some minority ethnic groups continue to experience institutionalized and disproportionate short and long-term disadvantage regarding human, civil and political rights, including inequalities in access to and participation and achievement in education, work and socioeconomic outcomes.
It is important that Pearson, as a global leader in education, actively works to change this, to empower all individuals to achieve their potential and enrich our communities and societies. By ensuring our products and services are consciously antiracist, accurate and authentic in representing the diverse communities we serve, we will play a role in driving positive change. Our Global Product and Global Diversity and Inclusion functions are central to this commitment, and we continuously engage in rigorous process of internal and external review and validation to ensure our products and services are bias-free, fair and inclusive.
