A new chapter for KLA! We’re reviving interscholastic athletics and beginning the KLA Ravens era. Grateful to Yuut Basketball Association for pledging $2,000 toward uniforms and equipment for our students. Quyana!

From pizza and conversation at Back to School Night to wellness with Sam Garcia and Derrick Moore, this week at KLA reminded me to make time for people, not just the to-do list. That’s what I’m carrying into next week. 💜 #SchoolLeadership
Honored to welcome Alaska’s Task Force on Education Funding to KLA! Proud to have our state leaders meet the incredible students & teachers who make our school special.
Bonus: meeting fellow @aef_program alum Rep. Rebecca Himschoot!
Our students are why education budgets matter
New chapter. New adventure.
Honored to begin my journey as Assistant Principal at Kuskokwim Learning Academy in rural Alaska as I celebrate 10 years in education. Ready to learn, serve, and grow.

Abu Dhabi was unforgettable—from the @LouvreAbuDhabi and dune bashing to inspiring conversations at MBZUAI. I left with new perspectives, great connections, and plenty to reflect on.

📚 Med dopustom je prišla novica, ki jo je vredno deliti: knjiga The Play Advantage: Global and Indigenous Perspectives in Higher Education (ur. Sequoyah Wharton @Nostalgik & Edward Gonsalves, založba Routledge) je na voljo v prednaročilu. 🎉
V čast mi je, da sem napisal drugo poglavje — v njem predstavim ogrodje MOLJ / MOTH 🦋 in primere dobre prakse svojega učiteljevanja.
Dober glas seže tudi v globalno vas. Iz Zasavja v svet. 🌍

In the blink of an eye, my @AEF_Program is coming to a close. Yesterday was my final meeting with the fellows, and my time in a congressional office is ending too. Grateful for this chapter and ready for the next adventure.

Came across the video today from the @theNASEM panel I had the honor of joining on media literacy education. Grateful to be part of a conversation centering student voice, storytelling, critical thinking, and civic life.

Explored the Lincoln Memorial Undercroft and the new @NatGeo Museum of Exploration this weekend. The live performance at National Geographic was a highlight.
As an educator, I love experiences that spark curiosity and bring learning to life.

First regatta in the books with Capital Rowing Club!
Started race day in a Men’s 4+ and finished in a Mixed 8+. Rowing has been one of the best surprises of my D.C. fellowship: early mornings, great people, and a reminder that being a beginner keeps you growing.
#CapitalRowing
One of the best professional learning experiences I’ve had. Grateful to spend the week at #PZC2026 at @hgse, learning with educators from around the world, meeting @DrHowardGardner, exploring the @harvartmuseums, and leaving with new ideas #ProjectZero #VisibleThinking
Busy week! Great tour of the NAB studios and excited to welcome Bernita Walker to the BASH Board as our DC Regional Director. Also enjoyed visiting Carderock with fellow #EinsteinFellows25 Shane Wines and Robert Mayne. Spot from @BostonDynamics stole the show!

Honored to serve as a panelist at the @NASEM Media Literacy Workshop today. Great discussions, great people, and great to reconnect. Thanks to @NAMLE and PBS Student Reporting Labs for always supporting student voice and media literacy.

Last night I visited the @KoreanLegation in D.C., met the Ambassador of the Republic of Korea, explored a fascinating piece of diplomatic history, and enjoyed some incredible Korean food.
Some of the best learning happens outside the classroom.

TY all for the bday love!
No island or vacation this year. I was working, naturally.
Grateful to spend it supporting the Presidential Al Challenge and celebrating amazing students and educators.
Now, about that island next year.

Busy week on the Hill. Inspiring weekend meeting Ambassador of the Bahamas, Wendall K. Jones and presenting at @AmericanU for STEMTeachersDMV.
Policy, storytelling, play, STEM, and rowing.

Proud to see Brentwood’s Green Machine represent our school at the National 250th Memorial Day Parade in DC. Seeing former students, colleagues, and administrators while away on my @AEF_Program Fellowship made it even more special.

What a great day to finish up LTR with Capital Rowing Club.
Rowing has been a powerful reminder of teamwork: listen carefully, trust the people around you, find a shared rhythm, and keep moving together.
Grateful for the coaches, teammates, and new friends.
