2. I have over 13 years of experience in education and began my work as a language arts and math teacher. During the past four years, I have been working as a Technology Integration Specialist assisting various schools both in Connecticut and Mississippi with technology integration in all subject areas. While in Mississippi, I received over $65,000 worth of technology equipment through various grants I was awarded. Two of the schools I worked with have become SMART Technologies Showcase Schools, recognized for the innovative usage of SMARTboards in the classroom. Two years ago I was awarded Mississippi Technology Educator of the Year from the Mississippi Technology Educators Association. I currently reside in Connecticut where I work as a Technology Integration Specialist for the EASTCONN Regional Educational Service Center. Lynn Reedy SL Name: Lyndsay Rhiano
