Tom Lucas’s Summary

After a career switch or two, I have truly found my passion in education. It has provided me with some of my life's greatest victories. However, it is not without its frustrations.

The current classroom environment does not truly embrace technology, something I feel strongly about. As a digital pilgrim, I seek to bring all I know and all I will know into classrooms, corporate training, and instructional design.

It is my professional dream to work side-by-side with great minds and creative personalities to better education in all its forms.
