READ what I POST,
WHEN I POST it

I write stuff as I feel like it. (I know, all the content gurus out there say it’s important to post often and on the same day of the week or whatever. I’m GenX and I don’t follow those rules.). Fill out your email if you want to be notified when I post something new.


about me

I have spent most of my life in education, both K12 and higher ed. My work experience also includes being a reference librarian, years of freelance work as a graphic designer, mentoring, teaching, event planning, and serving as a Creative Director for an in-house communications and marketing agency.

When I taught high school English, my students started calling me “Ramey Lady” and the name stuck.

I write about whatever grabs my attention, which can include current events, ideas about education, social change, TV and movies, good books, and the fact that I play too many video games.

Opinions expressed are my own.
