Mum. Plant enthusiast. Digitally-enhanced education. I'm fascinated by the way technology mediates communication; Sharing stories of life and learning can influence far more widely when they are digitally powered. I have worked in and around technology based education for over 20 years, both in industry and inside educational institutions. I have a PhD in Digital Storytelling as a Community Informatics approach, considering the role of this digital method for community empowerment and education as an inter-generational learning study. I now work with portfolio as a learning and assessment method as an Implementation Specialist with an ePortfolio and Personal Learning Space platform. Outside of community informatics and e-Learning, I love spending time with my family - humans and canine - and live, sleep, breathe gardening. I'm slightly obsessed with plants, and I garden organically with biodiversity in mind.
