My current emphasis with the XR Lab is to help establish the NWXR EDU Network which is a project&nbsp; supported by The National Science Foundation (2023-2026). I also facilitate online training workshops for faculty, assist with online course development, and Canvas administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prior to joining Interactive eLearning I worked with the Health Science Education and Wellness Division (HSEWI) as an eLearning Specialist. I&#8217;ve taught as an adjunct instructor with Bellevue College teaching approximately one to four classes per quarter from January, 2000 &#8211; June 2020. I have several years experience teaching at other colleges in the Northwest, and from 1999-2014 I contracted with advertising and tech agencies in the Seattle area developing interactive media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My hobbies include photography, sketching, and creating short documentary films. Several of my film projects have been accepted to local and international film festivals. <span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">I also enjoy running, hiking and skiing. I am very proud of my son who works in construction, and enjoys skateboarding, and snowboarding.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":114,"featured_media":9055,"parent":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-8805","staff","type-staff","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/staff\/8805","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/staff"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/staff"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/114"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/staff\/8805\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17017,"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/staff\/8805\/revisions\/17017"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bellevuecollege.edu\/elearningfaculty\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8805"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
