Why should you buy this resource?

Hi! My name is Alyssa and I'm a 30-something year old living in sunny South Florida. I currently work full time designing professional development for my district but was previously a teacher prior to getting promoted. I got my bachelors in Biology in 2012 and started teaching shortly after that. I taught biology, chemistry, AP/IB biology, and AP chemistry. While teaching, I was a teacher mentor and Biology lead for the department. As a hobby, I have always enjoyed creating content. I've been creating original content for courses

for eight years, and spent much of that time giving it away for free. This content has helped many teachers navigate the concepts found in their upper level courses. As far as additional hobbies go: I'm a fitness enthusiast, I write a horror movie blog, I craft decor and DIY everything, I paint and sell artwork, and I run an instructional design blog. I recently received my masters in instructional design. I'm a busy girl but that's the way I enjoy life.
