When I'm not dressing up with my pocket protector in my eMathGuy uniform, I'm more commonly referred to as Bill Doherty. I've been teaching for 30 (gasp!) years, the past 11 of those at a high performing Northern California public high school, where I teach math and serve as the school's Technology Coordinator. I've always enjoyed finding creative ways to bring the beauty of the mathematical world to students, and my work in technology has enabled me to dabble with lots of cool tools that help my own students communicate math more effectively.
