Bio
I am a perpetual student, conscientious, enthusiastic and kind. I like who I am when I am teaching; I hope you will too.
I am an empathetic communicator. Leslie Jamison wrote, "Empathy requires knowing you know nothing." In high school, I was a Peer Supporter. For 2 years, I counselled a small group of students. I found that approaching the task with a desire to help and the humility Jamison prescribes produced great understanding between my peers and I.

Subjects
