Bio:
I am passionate about innovating in education in order to improve educators' and learners' experiences and outcomes. I am an educator at heart. During my 15 years in public education as a Spanish teacher/professor in the K-20 spectrum, I held a variety of roles in traditional, flipped/hybrid, and fully online learning environments with the large majority of those years spent as an Online Teacher and Instructional Leader for the North Carolina Virtual Public School (NCVPS), the country's second-largest online school. In addition to those roles at NCVPS, I was a Curriculum Writer, Course Development Leader, Developer, and Advisory Board Member at various points as well. Like most educators, I worked at least one side gig. I worked as a SME, Consultant, and E-Learning Support Specialist/LMS Admin for various organizations (both public and private) at various points of my career as well. Since transitioning to Instructure, I have been fortunate to work with some amazingly talented people to support almost all of Instructure's products. Currently, I work as a Group Product Manager for Canvas where I am able to leverage my experience, skills, and expertise to ensure that we deliver products that solve problems, that people love, and that ultimately make a positive impact on the evolving world of edtech and education in general. I strongly believe in our company's mission to elevate student success, amplify the power of teaching, and inspire everyone to learn together. I look forward to connecting with you here, in the Instructure Community!

@james_whalley Peer Review now falls under me, so I'll look into this and get it submitted as a UX bug as needed if Support hasn't already reported it. Thanks for surfacing!
