TED-Ed Teacher Leader
I have been a Teacher leader for ED-Ed - Ideas Worth Spreading. This involved being part of the TED-Ed community and preparing my TED-Ed club members for their Ideas Worth Spreading. The below video is one of my Grade 6 student's talk that I helped her prepare and organize. It is now on the TED-Ed social media platform.
SERVICE LEARNING TEACHER LEADER
As a teacher leader involved in various projects in the Philippines we have been and continue to action a number of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Co-Curricular
I have offered a variety of Co- Curricula clubs for my students such as: Model United Nations (preparing students and attending MUN conferences), Debating Clubs ( preparing students to compete within the Queensland Debating Union), cross country, digital music, creative writing, animation, humans right club and comic creation.
I have taken students on school camps and ski camps which is always a great way to build and nurture bonds with students. In the past I have been a Social Committee member involved in promoting social events for staff. I enjoy being involved in my school community and have been a Strategic Planning group member and also an ICT Leadership committee member.

Music
I love to play the Bodhran which is a traditional Irish drum. I can play basic reels and jigs and love the opportunity to play with other amateur musician’s. I have jammed in pubs in Tokyo with other players and have performed at school fairs. I also enjoy creating digital music and writing my own original lyrics.

Sport
I am a runner and I enjoy distances of 5 to 10 km. I have also entered charity running events such as the Terry Fox Run to raise funds for cancer research. I love to hike too and have explored ranges such as the Italian Alps, Swiss Alps and Peak District. I set a personal challenge to walk the three peaks in Yorkshire, England in 8 hours which can be a challenging 24.5 mile hike over 3 peaks totaling 5000 feet, and yes I did it in just over 8 hours. I also enjoy working out at the gym.

Experiences
My experiences have been cultural diverse and memorable. I have been fortunate to have explored some amazing places and eaten some amazing food too. Some have included: eating ramen at the 8th station on Mount Fuji as a typhoon came through, parasailing in Australia, white water rafting in Bali and speed boating at the Iguazu Fall, Brazil.
