This is a PSA for the many people who apply to work with Devotive through our website:

We appreciate all of your thoughtful applications and e-mails, and are grateful that you found Devotive worthy of your efforts to reach out to us.

It is unfortunate that often, there are too many of these e-mails to individually respond to them. However, synchronicity does happen where our need for new people coincides with someone e-mailing us at that very moment. Some of our best relationships have been formed that way, and it is a beautiful manifestation of the abundant universe.

So in that light, feel free to reach out periodically to remind us of your wonderful skills, for there may very well come a time where everything aligns and we will work together.

Until then, we wish you all of the success you seek.

NEA Foundation - Kerisa Baedke

We had the distinct pleasure of working once again with the NEA Foundation on making films for the 5 Finalists of the Horace Mann Awards for Teaching Excellence. The highest accolade in the public education world. We are sent to 5 cities around the country (or Germany / Military Base this year). While telling these amazing stories is an honor, one of the greatest rewards are the personal connections we make with these amazing educators.

Please see below Kerisa Baedke's video from Waukee Iowa. Kerisa's dedication to creating a unique classroom environment immerses her students in the language and culture she teaches. Her loving personality and beautiful spirit were captured in one of the five mini-films we produced:
