About

As the Associate Director of Learning and Engagement (IBDP) at Toddle, I spearhead the creation of innovative workshops and resources, empowering IBDP educators to seamlessly integrate AI tools into their teaching. My journey, deeply rooted in a passion for teaching and nurturing minds, has transitioned from classrooms to a broader educational platform, where I now focus on enhancing educators' capabilities to revolutionize education through technology. As an IBDP educator myself, I have a nuanced understanding of the challenges and opportunities in educational environments, from teaching IB TOK and Biology to supervising extended essays that achieved top grades. At Toddle, I blend this rich educational background with cutting-edge technologies, leading the design and implementation of intuitive, AI-powered prompts that enrich the teaching and learning experience. I am dedicated to demystifying AI for educators, ensuring that they are equipped with the right tools and knowledge to inspire and engage their students effectively. As the landscape of education evolves, my goal remains steadfast: to empower educators to harness the transformative power of technology, making learning more dynamic, accessible, and impactful for every student.
