Bio
I am never satisfied, always thirsting for more interesting and useful knowledge. But more than that, I am passionate and determined to teach and share my knowledge with others, for a better world.
I am enthusiastic and find the art of teaching to be an extremely meaningful pursuit. I am uniquely capable of taking a body of knowledge and restructuring it to the needs of specific students, getting to know how my students work, and adapting my methods to their individual needs. I find great satisfaction in getting an important concept across, even learning more about it myself in the process.
