Hello everyone!
My name is Lauren Simpson. I am 23 (almost 24 in 12 days!!) years old. I am originally from Waxahachie, Texas (a small town outside of Dallas). I graduated in December, 2012 from The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics with a Teaching Minor via the nationally recognized UTeach Program. I just finished my second year at Legacy Early College High School in Taylor, Texas and just this past Saturday I was honored by my peers and named Teacher of the Year for my campus.
I am working on my Master’s of Education in Educational Technology, along with my E-Learning Certificate. I plan on graduating in May, 2016. I look forward to working with all you throughout this class.

Hey guys, I am Josh Malone. I am at my half way point with the instructional technology master’s program. I live in Austin, Texas, recently moving from Mobile, Alabama. While in Mobile, I was a former junior-high math teacher, youth director, adult director, and Starbucks barista. I am currently on track to become an assistant manager this fall. I have enjoyed this program and all the knowledge I have gained. I would ideally like to train for a corporate company. The possibilities are endless and I am excited to see what the future holds.

Hello, my name is Shawnna Bender. I am currently in my third year of teaching at Van ISD. This is my first semester of graduate classes so I am just starting my journey. I am working toward the master technology teacher certification. My goal is to become the campus level technology specialist for the campus I currently work at or another campus in the district. I have been married for 15 years and have one child named Seth. I am excited to start this journey and learn new innovative ways to educate children.

It is good to see those of you I know again. For those that do not know me, I am Rod Trevino. I am an Austinite and I work for the U. S. Government in a Learning and Education branch. I am a project manager and developer for e-learning products for what we call the Wage and Investment branch of the IRS. I have a teenage son who is looking forward to a summer full of sci-fi movies. I am halfway through the program now and currently taking two classes. I originally started out with the intention of getting the e-learning certificate and just fell into a second master's degree. Good times. I look forward to the session with you all. |

Hi Everyone!
My name is Jenna Smith and I am striving to obtain my M.Ed. in Educational Technology with an e-Learning Certificate by the end of the year. I call Texas home, but currently work for a community college in Charlotte, North Carolina as The College & Career Readiness Recruitment, Retention, & Assessment Specialist. (In short, I am a former instructor turned "principal" of an Adult Basic Education Program. I spend v-e-r-y long days advising, assessing, and correcting way too many behavioral issues among 800 student while also supporting 80 instructors (most of them part-time.) I truly miss being in the classroom and appreciate it when I am needed to fill in for one of my instructors. I have been an online student for over 15 years and my ultimate goal is to teach online.
I have looked over the roster for this class and I am happy to see many of us have been in the same classes in the past! I look forward to working with you again this semester!
Good luck to you all! I'll see you online soon!
Cheers,
Jenna
P.S. To ensure I complete what the instructions are, here is a little more info: My immediate family consists of my husband who has been in law enforcement for 23 years, two 4 lbs. Yorkshire Terriers, and a 104 lbs. German Shepard Police K-9....I don't play to lotto, so I don't have favorite numbers to share (sorry!).... and one hobby I love is skydiving!!!

Hi!
My name is Ana Suárez. I am happily married and a mother of three beautiful children. With a full time job, family, and pursuing this degree, there isn't time for much more! I am currently in my third semester at UTB and am pursuing a Master’s Degree in Educational Technology. I am a teacher in Miami and enjoy implementing what I learn in my classroom. I am looking forward to learning about Brain Based Learning and know that I will be able to share my knowledge with my colleagues. I look forward to meeting and working with my classmates and believe that I have something to learn from everyone!

Pedro Rodriguez III

Hello Everyone, My name is Pedro Rodriguez III and will be graduating in the Fall of this year from the Educational Technology Program. I am currently working in Web Development and Design for a TV station. After a couple year at my current employment, I am ready to move on to something better. For my relax and reflection time, I photograph birds at the World Birding Centers located in the Rio Grande Valley. I recently grew an interest in gar fishing, but will have to wait after this semester to fully pursue it. Finally I volunteer at a children’s church where I oversee and direct a team of volunteer leaders to promote spiritual, intellectual, and leadership growth. |

Hello, I am Brian Martinez. I am a secondary Math teacher for Los Fresnos High School. I just completed my 4th year of teaching and I am headed right into summer school. I got my BA in English from UTPA and I have four classes left to complete for my Masters of Education in Educational Technology. Also, last Summer I earned my Master Technology Teacher Certification.
On a personal note, I am 26 years old and I am just a few days away from celebrating my 2nd anniversary with my wife Ali Martinez. She is an AP Chemistry teacher at LFHS and recently won Teacher of the Year for our district. We are expecting our first child to be born in October. And the two of us volunteer at Olmito Community Church as the Youth Leaders.

Hey everyone!
My name is Elvin Flores and I just completed my second year teaching. I am currently teaching fifth grade in McAllen, Texas. This year I was lucky enough to be able to fill a position teaching summer school. We finish at around the same time this course ends so my summer doesn't officially begin until July. I am almost through the Masters of Education in Educational Technology program. I look forward to this class and am eager to work and collaborate with everyone here.
