About Me:

I've taught Latin in southeastern North Carolina since 1992 and am the founder of the Tres Columnae Project, an interactive online community for Latin learners. I know many of you from the American Classical League Institutes and other other face-to-face gatherings for Classicists, and I look forward to meeting everyone else.

Best/worst computer-related classroom happening:

Best: My spring 2010 AP Latin class used Alice to create an ironic cartoon version of Book I of the Aeneid. It was amazing!

Funniest: A student once volunteered to "organize" the favorites on what was then our only student-use classroom computer. His categories included "Stuff" and "Other Stuff."
