Doodle and Chat with Friends

WHAT IS DOODLE AND CHAT?

Our world is jam packed full of opportunities waiting for us to add connections, smiles, laughter and doodles to. Doodle and Chat uses fun, the unpredictable, conversations, and the practice of sketchnotes to learn about educators, amplify their contributions to the field of education, and have conversations about current issues and ideas in education. With paper, pen, an iPad and “the bowl that knows” filled with fun relationship building and specific to the audience questions, Mandi and Carrie pull from “the bowl that knows” while doodling and chatting (with each other and the audience) all about the questions. Doodle and Chat is perfect for a new and unique keynote, a fun and engaging conference session or an interactive, doodle filled, laugh to connect conference experience.

About Me

I’m  a momma, wife, mismatch sock wearer,  youtuber, author, doodler, inspiration junkie,  Special Education teacher and inspiration junkie.

Seven years ago a friend thought it would be a great idea to start a blog together.  With a deep breath and fear that all the weirdos in the world would start stalking me or the white van would come to her house and kidnap her children we started blogging together. A new formed anonymity was born.  As an anonymous mom blogger I began to write. The more I wrote, the more people I met.  The more wonderful, kind and amazingly caring people I met, the braver I got. The braver I got the more confident I became…and suddenly I had found a voice I never knew I had.

Well… I have stepped waaaayyyy out from behind my anonymity to share my voice as a mother, wife, woman,   teacher of students who receive supports and services through their individual education plan,  author, gamifier, sketchnoter and creator.

Holy wow! Right…and I haven’t stopped!!

Today I am the proud founder, editor in chief, CEO, head creator of all the things at  carriebaughcum.com  and youtube.com/carriebaughcum. 

I CREATE. Words, stories and life are full of inspiration and ideas waiting to be visualized and doodles waiting to be brought to life !

I provide a wide range of unique digitally hand drawn services.  Connect with me to commission animal, creatures or characters drawings. Or go big and lets talk sketchnotes for books or publications. I’m is giddy to idea talk with you about how I can bring your ideas, words, inspiration, heart and imagination to life with doodles, illustrations or sketchnotes.

I PRESENT. I am a passionate and a deep believer that there are NO RULES when it comes to bringing out the best in our students, creating, learning or just being you. Whether it is sharing my voice, my experiences as a  special education teacher, exploring your inner creator,  learning about the power of sketchnotes or diving into and learning about the power of gamification I am passionate about the all of it, what it can bring out in our teaching, how it can enhance learning and what it can empower our learners to be!
