-I'm really excited about joining the stewardship committee to contribute to the fantastic work that OUCEL is doing. Since I became part of the OUCEL community, I've felt a warm welcome from colleagues who are incredibly supportive and keen on creating a positive, collaborative space. It's been a great group for sharing insights, offering guidance, gaining inspiration, and cheering on each other's accomplishments. The wealth of information within the group is a valuable resource for both personal and collective growth, and it's also an excellent opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals dedicated to making a positive impact on teaching and learning. I have over 10 years of experience managing and supporting the use of Learning Technologies within Higher Education, a background in Computer Science, and I'm currently pursuing my Master of Educational Technology. I'm excited to grow and learn alongside everyone.

 '''Chair'''
-My interest in serving on OUCEL’s Stewardship Committee is primarily based on giving back to a group that has provided so much to me professionally. My experiences in multiple teaching and learning-centered roles at McMaster University and in working and collaborating with eCampusOntario, has provided me with both institutional and system-wide perspectives on how to foster the creation and support of enriching tech-enhanced teaching and learning experiences. My background is rooted in many areas‚ including learning design, technology platform evaluation, acquisition and thoughtful use, faculty development programming, open education and open pedagogies, inclusive teaching practices and cultivating digital literacies for post-secondary communities. I have experienced the countless benefits collaborating across institutions can provide, and work on OUCEL’s Stewardship Committee will feed into my belief that this collaboration across our institutions is key to shaping our collective future.  OUCEL represents to me a group that strives toward a shared purpose of cultivating excellence in tech-enhanced teaching and learning, while looking beyond our own institutional and structural constraints.

-OUCEL was the very first group I got to interact with when I started my career in educational development in 2015 and I was made to feel welcome and valued even with my lack of experience. As part of the stewardship committee I want to give back to this valuable group and support the positive influence it has within our community. Within my office I support a wide range of technologies (virtual learning environments, video recording/editing, authoring tools, captioning, digital math, assistive technologies, etc.). I also sit on various committees and working groups related to professional development, accessibility, technology, and eLearning strategies. Finally, I have the pleasure of continuing to teach an asynchronous online Astronomy course.

 '''University of Windsor'''
 I believe wholeheartedly in the value of this community, and am very glad to be able to contribute to its development and resilience in the coming years. OUCeL is a community that opened its arms and welcomed me when I moved to Canada almost a decade ago, and I feel at home when I am with my colleagues from this group. I have contributed to the planning of our annual meetings for several years, and have hosted OUCeL at Windsor, so I'm comfortable supporting the community in this way. I am very active in online, open and technology-enhanced education in the province as a member of the eCampus Ontario Board of Directors and through involvement in many other aspects of eCampus' activities, as well as international organisations in the field. Above all, I want to see our community continue to thrive, to maintain its unique connections to the people who share our space in post secondary education, and to collectively share our wisdom so that we can advocate effectively for the people we serve in our institutions. I am excited to see how our community continues to evolve, and to play an active role in the OUCeL Stewardship Committee.

+I have been active with OUCeL since its early days and always valued the way this community shares information, coordinates, and advances e-learning. I bring over 20 years of experience in university teaching and learning technologies. As the Director of Technology-Enabled Learning at Brock University’s Centre for Pedagogical Innovation (CPI), I am committed to making technology an enabling element of the educational experience rather than an obstacle. I have been involved in large-scale Learning Management System (LMS) migrations, open-source development, fundraising, and digital accessibility initiatives. I hold a Master of Education in Administration and Leadership from Brock University and have been fortunate enough to occasionally teach.

 '''Toronto Metropolitan University'''
 I discovered and was welcomed to the OUCeL community in the summer of 2012, just a few months after I joined Toronto Metropolitan University. Over three days of the Summer Institute at Ontario Tech University, I discovered a family of enthusiasts deeply committed to the wellbeing of students, and passionate connoisseurs of anything ed tech related. Since then I have been an active member, taking part in hosting Winter meetings at TMU. Throughout the years, this cross institutional engagement where ideas are freely exchanged, greatly enriched my professional journey, provided me with numerous opportunities to stay current on educational technologies, and allowed me to better guide my own institution’s initiatives in advancing opportunities for digital learning. By joining the stewardship committee I am looking forward to contributing further, so that our vibrant community continues to thrive.

 As Associate Director for Digital Learning at Western’s Centre for Teaching and Learning, my team’s work focuses on supporting instructors in making pedagogy‑first decisions in technology‑mediated environments. I was welcomed into OUCeL when I started my role in the fall of 2024 and quickly learned that this is a space full of brilliant, creative individuals who care. The ethos of OUCeL – grounded in open sharing and generosity – aligns deeply with my values as a leader in higher education, and through this active stewardship role, I’m looking forward to giving back to this community that has already given me so much.

−	"I have participated in OUCeL for several years since joining the TLSS at the University of Ottawa. I appreciate the open and supportive nature. My interest in joining the Stewardship Committee is to collaborate more within this community. With my background in instructional design and online learning, I am excited about the advancements in technology and pedagogy, and of course the challenges offered by AI. I believe the OUCeL group is best positioned to explore this new landscape, and share best practices in digital learning (online, hybrid, bimodal etc)."
