Bio: Hi! I am thrilled to meet you! I believe that the most creative minds are those of children, and that it is absolutely awesome to spread their innovative ideas for everyone to share. We all have stories, so why not tell them?
I am an educator who has been working in the field for around 15 years now. I love my job because it is all about giving!
I have always loved to write. I have written stories from the age of ten up to this very day, but I was always afraid of the idea of publishing them. Gritty Interactive is my dream help make children’s dreams come true. Sometimes all we need is a little push to help us embark on the most rewarding journey.
It’s time your voices are heard.
I cannot wait to hear/read your stories.

Hello! What can I say? I am a Technology freak! I love technology and everything about it. It fascinates me. I am an Internet nut, but I am interested in the human psyche.
I want to make a difference in the world, and I think that together we can make a change to education by learning how to effectively use technology in an exciting way!
I am a sun hater and a snow lover… Yes, that means Winter is my season!
Hey, how about we write a story about that?!
