Hi, I’m Nick!
I’m a former high school Social Studies teacher, now serving as the Lesson Plan Platform Program Manager at STEM Forged.
During my teaching career, I taught U.S. & World History, AP U.S. History (APUSH), Government & Economics, and Senior Project.
I’m deeply passionate about leveraging AI to revolutionize education—creating dynamic, high-quality lessons that empower learners to achieve their goals.
I hold an M.S. in Learning Design and Technology (2024) from the University of San Diego and a California Social Science Teaching Credential (2020) from Point Loma Nazarene University. In 2024, I was honored to be named District Teacher of the Year.
If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to reach out—I’d love to connect!
