derry, a technology educator, believes in the freedom to create.

Derry

Creative. Educator. Technology Coach.

 

Derry is an educator and a Creative in the field of technology. She logged over 10,000 hours and 5 years as an Apple Creative trainer at its flagship store in Boston, with a strong focus on storytelling and video editing education. For the last 12 years, Derry has offered independent consulting with families, individuals, schools and small businesses, opening their minds and doors to endless possibilities. This is technology training that focuses on the learner, their need to acquire skills and Derry's mission to create confident users. 

 

Before all this, she was "the computer teacher" for six years, K through 3, introducing young children to a new world of "creativity in technology" in the Cohasset Public School system in Massachusetts.

​

As a mom of three, she became a self-taught (and learning every day) technology advocate to keep one step ahead of her kids. She has turned it into a career that offers the pursuit of excellence and the pride that travels with every student’s and client’s personal success helping bring peoples' dreams and ideas to life. 

Alex

Creative. Writer. Filmmaker.

​

Alex had realized a passion for storytelling at an early age, launching a lifelong relationship with all types of creative communication. With an education in filmmaking, he has contributed to a variety of creative projects throughout his career. Working in the retail and hospitality industries, Alex has focused his attention on training and development, bringing to the table modern and innovative ways of sharing information. 

Recognizing there is no one-size-fits-all method of teaching, Alex takes care to create a personalized learning experience. But more importantly, he strives to empower learners with the tools and confidence needed to grow their skills beyond the classroom - so to speak.

Alex empowers learners with the freedom to create
Jim markets the freedom to create.

Jim

Marketer. Planner. Creative.

 

Jim’s career started over 35 years ago. He has worked as a marketing and operations specialist for Fortune 50 companies, start-ups and major not-for-profit organizations. He has also led companies that have launched new technologies and service companies that provided consulting and communications strategy for brands in almost every category.

Most importantly he helps people establish an identity for products and services that stands apart from competitors in the open market. That identity lies in their core values and the clarity with which they state their case and purpose.
