The Las Lomas Dronettes
The Dronettes originated out of a love for dance and coding. My goal is to motivate GIRLS TO CODE. Computing is where the jobs are — and where they will be in the future, but fewer than 1 in 5 computer science graduates are women. Help close the gender gap in technology and to change the image of what a programmer looks, likes, and does.

The Drone Zone
My motivation behind Drone Zone was to highlight careers in the Tech Industry. Students have limited STEM career knowledge with respect to subject requirements and with respect to what sort of activities these careers involve. The Drone zone gave students the opportunity to fly drones, learn to code, and interact with field experts.

STEAM Makers
I strongly believe the STEAM education movement emphasizes 21st-century skills, project-based learning, and the interconnectedness of academic subject areas. Teaching STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) helps students become more proficient in collaboration, questioning, problem-solving, and critical thinking.
