I gave a presentation to the NJ Association of Library Assistants in Mercer County, NJ on June 7th, 2011. The topic was Using Inkscape.

I showed prints from my 365 Sketches project in the upstairs gallery of the Ocean County Library in Toms RIver, NJ. The show was up for the entire month of June, 2011.

On March 1st, 2011, I became the new Manager of Educational Technology Training and Outreach at Princeton University. I’m a part of OIT in Academic Services. I help to manage the personal and small group training for tools like Blackboard, WordPress, and other Princeton supported educational technologies. I also help to manage the seminar series including Lunch ‘n Learn and Productive Scholar.

I used GIMP to make an idea I had earlier today as I was slashing through piles of email that have less and less relevance to me . It fit nicely into the 7-5-7 form which I forgot is not the haiku form, which is 5-7-5. DUH! In case you’ve not heard, I recently resigned from my long-term position at Rider to take a similar position at Princeton University. And so, all those emails that might have had me jumping a month ago are a lot easier to pass on, respond quickly to, or simply (ninja vanishing sounds).

I showed prints from my 365 Sketches project in the east gallery of the Mercer County Library Headquarters in Lawrence Township, NJ. The show was up for the entire month of February, 2011, and the opening reception was from 2-4 p.m. on Sunday February 6th, 2011. During the reception, I gave an overview and talk that explained the history and processes of the project.
I am now co-teaching a graduate level course in the Communication track of the MA in Organizational Leadership program at Rider University. The course, COMM 563, is Digital Media Communication. In the class we focus on the issues, concepts, and problems of organizational communication using digital media. The course uses WordPress as a learning and posting platform, and participants learn how to develop effective publishing skills, integrating various digital media, and developing an audience for their brand.
