Being a start-up, I had to swap roles as my evolving work-load changed.  Primarily I was a curriculum developer and class planner. I created curriculum for game design, children's robotics, mechanical engineer, and urban planning.

Kept instructors supplied with whatever they need to best teach their classes. I worked with children ages 7-17 to make sure everyone was having a fun and educational time at camp.  Managed instructors by helping them to consistently improve their teaching and provide quality instruction. I interacted with students and parents alike to make sure everyone was satisfied with our services. I also troubleshoot technical and hardware glitches that arose on a day-to-day basis with our computers and software.

iD Tech Camps
https://www.linkedin.com/company/id-tech-camps
Updated and refined the iD Tech web site curriculum used as a teaching tool by instructors and students.  With the curriculum I worked on already fairly established, I “face-lifted” the existing teaching guide.  This provided updates to make the pages more presentable, easier to navigate, and ordered in a way that promoted ease of teaching and optimal learning.  As part of this, I created and implemented several completely new lessons.

Taught computer gaming and media creation across a plethora of programs, including Maya and Multimedia Fusion. Supervised and mentored students in groups of up to 8 for a period of approximately 8 hours daily.
