Meet Kathi Kersznowski, a Technology Integration Expert in New Jersey. She enjoys her responsibilities in a public school system as educational technology leader for her entire district and beyond. She says that the very best part of her job is the people that she serves—the teachers!
Kathi is the owner of an Educational Technology Consulting business called Integration Innovation, LLC. She is a blogger, a keynote speaker, and a global presenter on various educational technology, STEM/STEAM, global education, and leadership topics. She enjoys traveling nationally and internationally to edtech conferences to learn and present.

Kathi has presented many times at national conferences such as ISTE and TCEA. She has proudly co-presented about the importance of creating global connections on the Arena Main Stage at BETT in London and also in Microsoft’s Learn Live Theatre. She has done keynote speeches on things about which she is most passionate – including Global Learning: and Relevant Technology Integration
In her past career lives, Kathi has worked as an elementary teacher, a special education teacher, and a computer teacher, and she even holds a master’s degree in School Administration . . . which she hasn’t actually used—yet! Kathi is a voracious lifelong learner. In addition to being a proud MIEExpert, Apple Certified Teacher, and Google Certified Educator and Trainer, Kathi is an ambassador or consultant for some of the world’s leading and most beloved edtech companies, including including Flipgrid, Wakelet, Merge, Empatico, Genially, Novel Effect, Seesaw, and more. Kathi is the most recent recipient of Flipgrid’s highest honor: Student Voice Champion of the Year.
Kathi can often be found fervently interacting on Twitter, attending edcamps on weekends, reading blogs, catching webinars, being a guest on podcasts, attending education conferences just for fun, and even organizing local coffee meet-ups to have a chance to chat with other fun educators. Kathi is the creator of the original #LearningInTheLoo movement globally, and she’s also the creator of some Flipgrid-themed favorites you may know: #Fliphunt, #FlipmojiScenes, and the inaugural #Flipathon.

When she remembers to focus on that “life” part of “work/life balance,” Kathi most enjoys traveling with her husband, Matt, and son, Ryan, fairly often to Florida where her parents live. She also just loves a cozy bonfire, being out in nature, drinking really strong coffee and lots of it, doing a little saltwater fishing and crabbing, baking up a storm, going out for a flight, planning new vacation adventures, reading nonfiction mysteries, taking long Jeep drives with the roof off, slurping down some raw oysters, tent camping, kayaking, taking too many photos, and enjoying ridiculously long midday naps.
