My name is Meagan Kelly, and my life can be summed up in a few core titles: Wife, mom, school leader, and total tech nerd. If you stumbled onto my corner of the internet, there is a very high probability that you claim at least a couple of those titles, too. So, welcome to my beautiful chaos!
I have always loved education. Seriously, I was the “weird” kid who genuinely looked forward to school every single day—once even showing up with a 102-degree fever because I absolutely refused to miss out on anything. That deep-rooted love for learning made entering the education field the easiest choice I ever made.
Over the last twenty years, I’ve worn just about every hat imaginable. I’ve been an aide, a substitute, a tutor, and a full-time teacher in private, charter, and public schools. I’ve taught Math, Science, Computer Science, AVID, and even a stint of Latin (and no, please don’t ask me to speak it!). Eventually, my path led me into school administration, where I get to support entire school communities every day.
Along the way, I also fell hard for educational technology. I became a Google Certified Educator, Trainer, and Innovator—even traveling to London for the Google Innovator Academy, which is where my project, BoostEDU, was born. Over the years, I’ve had the incredible privilege of training thousands of educators on how to make technology work for them, not against them.
But as any educator knows, life happens in seasons.
When I transitioned into school administration—and welcomed babies into my family at home—my plate was completely full. I had to step back from the digital world for a bit to focus on leading my campus and raising my tiny humans.
Now that I’ve found my footing in leadership and the home front has settled into a groove, I am so excited to find my balance again. I’m officially jumping back into blogging, creating resources, and presenting.
Through I ❤ EDU, I get to combine my background as both a teacher and a school leader to equip educators worldwide with the tools, tech, and inspiration they need to drive student success.
Education is a wild, unpredictable ride, but whether I’m leading a school site, presenting to a room of passionate teachers, or chasing my kids at home, I love every single second of it.
