She has trained future data nerds worldwide through keynote presentations and workshops, for clients including Facebook, Mastercard, Adobe, Verizon, Rockefeller Foundation, Brookings Institute, and the United Nations. She writes a popular blog [https://stephanieevergreen.com/] on data presentation at StephanieEvergreen.com. Her two books on designing high-impact graphs, slideshows, and reports both hit #1 on Amazon bestseller lists weeks before they were even released. This Spring Dr. Evergreen published the second edition of one of those bestsellers and a brand new sketchbook with templates for making infographics and dashboards.

Episode 2: What Happens in Vegas

On this episode I talk to Carrie Baughcum.  Carrie is an inspiration junkie, idea sharer, learning enthusiast and passionate believer that all children can learn, we just need to find out how. She is also a 6th, 7th, and 8th grade Special Education teacher in the northwest suburbs of Illinois where she uses creative thinking, a fearless attitude, the power of technology, gamification, and endless doodles to enable her students to access information and materials, enhance their learning, and empower them to achieve things they never knew they could. Carrie shares her experiences and ideas by speaking and teaching other educators at conferences, on her YouTube channel youtube.com/carrie baughcum [youtube.com/carrie baughcum] and at carriebaughcum.com [http://carriebaughcum.com./] and on Twitter under the handle @HeckAwesome.
