Hi, my name is Jaime Pisko, and I am a Staff Development Specialist for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. I'm very fortunate to be in a role where I can help our personnel learn and grow. I create and deploy annual and on-demand educational content for personnel and I thoroughly enjoy taking a blank lesson and creating something engaging and informative at the end! 

I live just outside of Scranton, PA (Home of The Office!), and I am blessed with an amazing husband, two wonderful girls, a dog, 3 cats, a fish, and 12 chickens! That many pet pictures would crash the site, so just picture a small farm and you got it! 😊

Looking forward to working with everyone, and I am excited to learn more about AI.

    Hey Jamie, so glad you could join the cohort! What's your favorite tactic to make a course engaging?

    A small farm sounds about right! I'd love to keep chickens one day.

      Thanks MaryEmma! I love sprinkling in a wide variety of interactive components, from flash cards to sorting activities, videos and small knowledge checks. I try not to repeat within the same lesson to keep it new and fresh.
