About me
My name is Dana (Weis) Zimmer and I am currently in the IST Graduate Certificate program with a concentration as a School Specialist. I taught Social Studies at the 11th and 12th grade level for several years before taking a break to start a family. I am currently a Technology Facilitator and Website/Social Media contributor at Charlotte Catholic High School. I have a very supportive husband and two amazing little girls who always keep me on my toes. In my free time I love running and enjoying time with friends and family.
