Hi, I'm Amy Slack. I've been in education for over a decade at multiple levels (K12 and higher education) in multiple toles (teacher, technology leader, etc), supporting faculty and students with academic technologies like Canvas. My passion lies in finding innovative solutions to enhance teaching and learning. I'm excited to be a part of this community and contribute my expertise to help optimize the Canvas experience for everyone.
