Keyframe: A Portfolio in Three Parts

Here are some portfolio examples spanning a range of subject areas. 

Digital Portfolio examples

Jeremy Gordon, a retired USAF Fighter Pilot, wanted to help new recruits and active-duty military service members pass their fitness exams. We worked together to build his complete business brand.

I built all the visual assets he needed for his mobile app.

Afterburner Fitness Test Prep

I made this visual animation to show what new customers would get with a subscription.

Tools used: After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, and Audition.

I designed this versatile logo to show the active nature of Afterburner.

I seek adventure to find who I am when it really matters. I climb mountains, I swim in open waters, and I've jumped out of airplanes. Communities need wanderers that seek adventure and return stronger. Nothing is permanent in life and we all find our way and make meaning from what we find. The journey of life is the destination.

I share best practices on webinars and build them into blog posts.

Building Agency in Our Students Online

Wondering how to keep students involved and engaged in remote learning?

I provide a safe platform for educators to hear new ideas and share their experiences in and out of the classroom.

My experiences as a leader in education are given praise and lifted up for others to hear and learn from.

PART ONE: WHO AND WHY I AM PART TWO: THE WORK THAT SHOWS IT PART THREE: WHERE I AM GOING NOW

Ambition to Serve Others Protector of Hope Artisan Maker Expedition Minded Adventure Seeker

I spent 13 days surviving the backcountry of the Adirondack Mountains in New York state during my final year of secondary school. Communities that share in tough times are resilient. The expedition shaped how I view my place on a team and began the development of my expeditionary mindset; multi-functional, curious, and resourceful.

Rethinking beauty standards | Jingyao Wang | TEDxYouth@ASM

I showed up for Mariangel as she confronted the burnout culture in order to show others they can too.

I encouraged Jingyao to find her voice and speak up about a topic she knew would ruffle feathers in her community.

I supported Alan as he used storytelling to transform a complicated topic into a compelling talk for the TEDx stage.

My profound sense of stewardship to the communities I am a part of is the foundational set of values I bring to my work.

As a freelance digital media designer, I worked with small companies to build brand identity and marketing assets for their media campaigns; the foundations of a patron community.

Eye Glasses People Marketing Explainer

Eye Glass People struggled to explain what their product is and how it is different in their market. We built this visually rich explainer animation to outline their product-market fit.

I designed a space that allowed students to feel comfortable so they could be themselves.

I facilitated design thinking processes that allowed real ideas to come to life.

I recruited world-class speakers like the Global Head of Design, Brand, and Marketing for BBVA.

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/aWAhdfUWXPQR1UPW7fJOHnfObsb2/books/M45Ef-PZTuOVutm2EcPEaw/assets/CSx9Rw6tQNGgVmA5S9tFmA.png?width=419&height=437

Young entrepreneurs are inside each of our students and given the chance to express their ideas, they create great things. Opportunities for that expression often don't fit within the traditional structures of school. For 9 weeks over 3 summers, I was the Program Facilitator for the Young Innovators Program by Future Design School. The culminating experience was a pitch-style presentation to their peers, parents, and real angel investors who all gave invaluable feedback and support.

Using the human-centered design approach, I supported young adults to build iPad apps designed to solve real problems.

The work that I have done professionally embodies the principles and values I hold close to my heart. I am an artist.

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/aWAhdfUWXPQR1UPW7fJOHnfObsb2/books/M45Ef-PZTuOVutm2EcPEaw/assets/ugtbxI3tRuim93hwWo9BCg.png?width=1420&height=1068

A community is shaped by stories and the people who tell them. Enabling storytellers is an essential function of a healthy and thriving community. Bringing a TEDx event to life in a school requires extensive collaboration with staff, students, parents, and a production team. As the head facilitator for the TEDx Youth event at the American School of Madrid, I empowered young people to find their voice and see themselves as storytellers.

By bringing a TEDx event to my organization, I brought a global audience to my community of storytellers.

I've spent 17 weeks over 15 years volunteering with Amor Ministries to build homes in Mexico. Homes that allow families to stay together. Communities establish faith, allow us to trust, and create meaning; the ingredients for creating and protecting hope. My role as a participant and then a site leader has shaped my worldview and perspective on the essential ingredients of communities, regardless of where they are in the world.

Educators open themselves up to constantly learning new ways to engage their students by turning to the internet for live streams, webinars, and blog resources. I seek ways to create a platform for others to voice their experiences as well as a place to voice my own.

Project Based Learning for the Virtual Class

As a subject matter expert on creativity, I help form communities centered on education and technology integration.

Education is a never-ending cycle and a routine that requires inspiration in order to be innovative and drive change. With boundless energy and a vision for education that doesn't fit inside the box, I am called to be that inspiration for educators. I have been a keynote speaker, the star of a self-produced 360 video show, the co-author of an EdTech book, and the lead facilitator of professional development events all over the globe. The result has enabled me to use my talents for bringing communities together in order to spread my passion for innovative change in education.

How To Make Your Class as Addictive as a Video Game. 

Not All EdTech is Created Equal: Understanding the SAMR Model.

Recorded and edited using Audition. Hosted on LibSyn.

Sharing knowledge is critical to the collective strength of the global education community. As a coach and teacher trainer, I was tasked with sharing knowledge and connecting educators to build that collective strength.

My first podcast, Level Up Learning, aimed to engage and inspire educators with stories about current strategies and research in education. Later, I produced a show, The Press Release, that gave a platform to the voices of authors and educators. The result over the combined 4 years the shows were live was 17,000+ downloads of more than 35 episodes.

I'm not afraid of being the center of attention if it means my message is getting across and I am inspiring teachers.

I find innovative ways to use technology to communicate great ideas in education, including immerging technology like 360 videos.

I co-authored this book to inspire teachers to use VR in the classroom.

I've given a keynote address about the power of hope.

I spent 12 weeks over 2 years of secondary school working as a servant leader in the Camp Akita community putting the needs of others ahead of my own. Participating in a community means showing up for others. By doing much of the behind-the-scenes work that enables camp to run smoothly, I learned how to give of myself without seeking any credit or praise.

PART ONE: WHO AND WHY I AM PART TWO: THE WORK THAT SHOWS IT PART THREE: WHERE I AM GOING NOW

Empower vibrant communities Show up, fit in, hustle, and learn Find and share my voice

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/aWAhdfUWXPQR1UPW7fJOHnfObsb2/books/M45Ef-PZTuOVutm2EcPEaw/assets/ulv4Cm-7R_GMj_71fRkYVg.jpeg?width=1476&height=1108

The coming projects in my life will involve showing up for inclusive communities that leverage the strengths of individuals to empower the collective.

As a member of the communities I belong to, including my work community, I do four things; I show up, I fit in, I hustle, and I learn. My resourcefulness, resilience, and flexible nature make me a great fit for small teams that work on big projects. I bring creativity and passion to my work as a designer and artist. My drive to tell stories and help others learn to tell theirs is fueled by my love for building strong communities that leave a positive legacy on the world. I am excited about the prospect of joining the growing team at Book Creator and look forward to the possibilities that await.

Google has without a doubt made a massive, global impact on educational technology tools and in turn, reshaped how teachers work. In order to make the most impact they need educators who are at the forefront of their industry and willing to share their time and knowledge. I have worked with Google as an innovation coach, trainer, and advisor on projects like The Google Certified Innovator Program and Google Earth for Education Advisory Board.

My ideas have helped shape products that reach millions of educators around the world.

The HyperDocs Handbook was published in 2011 and reshaped how teachers all over the globe use technology to engage students. The book and methodology created a level of success that outgrew the vision of the founding team. I was hired to help iterate on the product and reach a larger audience. What started for me as a side project to leverage my systems design skills turned into the co-ownership of a revenue-generating website and brand that empowers thousands of teachers worldwide. Using the human-centered design approach I reshaped the brand identity, shifted the product to meet new market demands, and managed a project with teams in three countries. The project continues to be a success today.

I delivered inspirational talks that set the stage for divergent thinking and a tone of inclusivity.

I led a team of 20 teachers as they facilitated the process of a week-long design thinking sprint with students.

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/aWAhdfUWXPQR1UPW7fJOHnfObsb2/books/M45Ef-PZTuOVutm2EcPEaw/assets/0kkzgwQQRFi9HdmHlbO5hg.jpg?width=839&height=560

I fostered transformational conversations between students and staff that resulted in a lasting changes to school culture.

Many students today struggle to escape the injustices of a system designed to hold them back. Strengthening creativity skills and access to the technologies and people that foster them is one way that communities come together to create equity. I supported Hampton City Schools teachers and students in the initial rollout of more than 12,000 iPads, a 1:1 initiative funded by grants from the state of Virginia. The result was a student population with access to the same tools for creativity and learning as everyone else.

Keyframes represent the start of important moments in the timeline of a story. They make up the major points of transition and change.

I've been invited by Google as a guest to offices in London, San Fransico, New York, Brussels, and Madrid.

As an Innovation Coach at Google London, I gave a short keynote and presented about podcasting in education at the Google Innovator Academy.

I also coached 12 inspiring educators as they built their innovation projects.

As an advisor for the Google Earth for Education team I supported the EMEA region in thought leadership and training.

I leveraged feedback from the community to build an online product that now generates revenue for the company.

I brought my own talents to the company to build out visual assets to support our new products.

I modernized the identity of the company while maintaining the core value of the brand.

I used technology as a bridge between subjects to create transdisciplinary project-based learning experiences.

I created a safe place for students to create stunning mixed-reality presentations without the crippling fear of an audience.

I made science tangible for students that needed hands-on experience at the molecular level.

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/aWAhdfUWXPQR1UPW7fJOHnfObsb2/books/M45Ef-PZTuOVutm2EcPEaw/assets/D3i7e0Z8TL-9kZufdZbcPw.jpg?width=532&height=400

Experiences that support a community to shift its culture are essential for creating a sense of belonging for everyone. Small group design sprints are an example of nontraditional learning experiences that drive human-centered change. As the project leader for the first Engage Week Experience at the American School of Madrid, I designed a program that empowered over 250 students to take action in their school community.

The projects that students designed and implemented reshaped their school culture to include more justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion. 

Engage Week at ASM

New ideas and the change that comes with adopting them can often be daunting and require a guiding voice that has a vision that includes everyone. With the near-daily emergence of new technologies, educators are constantly tasked with learning how they may or may not fit into learning environments. As a Technology Coach, I have spent over a decade curating emerging technologies with action research into practical tools for learning.

The resulting downstream effect can be seen on the faces of students when they find clarity and understanding where there was once confusion. 

https://api.bookcreator.com/users/v2/aWAhdfUWXPQR1UPW7fJOHnfObsb2/books/M45Ef-PZTuOVutm2EcPEaw/assets/ZXYlBXFnQ3Cxzkd6xPh2xg.jpg?width=360&height=270

I often push the limits of possibility through the process of design and creation. By not fearing failure, I learn to be vulnerable and take risks. Communities that foster artisan makers are vibrant. For me, artisanship is both a form of coming alive and a function of staying alive. I cook, I carve, I cut &amp; paste, and I click over and over again.
