Hi, Jacqueline!

We can’t PM anymore through Discourse (only team members can), so I can’t initiate a private conversation with you. However, if you’d like to discuss this opportunity in the context of remote contract work, please feel free to reach out to me privately. We can discuss work that I’ve already done toward the goals mentioned in the job description.

Hi Jacqueline,  
My name’s Jeff. I’m a programming teacher, and I do Elementary CS curriculum development. I submitted an application with a bunch of relevant links. Please check out my work, and let me know if you have any questions.
