Your Guide: Sarah Gallagher Trombley
Sarah is a former Snapchat executive — she knows exactly how the platform works and what parents need to do to keep their kids safer on it. Now she helps families navigate the digital world through her company, Digital Mom Media. This is rare, inside knowledge, delivered in plain language.
Dynamic Influence specializes in "edutaining" presentations about social media dangers & cyber safety for schools and parents. Hackenson uses entertainment like magic, hypnosis, and visual effects, to deliver memorable and engaging lessons to encourage responsible digital citizenship to a young audience. All parents of 4th and 5th grade students are encouraged to attend.
