Jamie is a believer in curiosity. He believes our relationship with technology doesn't have to be complicated, and that when schools have an intentional approach to tech, every child can thrive.
Jamie partners with school districts, state education agencies, and university teacher preparation programs to bring practical digital literacy and well-being skills into the classroom. He turns Common Sense Media's research and resources into courses, toolkits, hands-on training, and bite-sized applications that fit the many ways educators teach and plan.
Jamie's career spans more than 20 years in classrooms, school leadership, and the nonprofit sector. He began as a high school civics and economics teacher, went on to serve as a vice principal, and later led as an education nonprofit executive. Along the way, he saw firsthand how technology use can benefit students and create new challenges for students, families, and schools. A frequent speaker at education and edtech conferences, Jamie is known for making complex topics about kids and technology clear, practical, and approachable.
