...Arizona. I've been on academic probation and truly understand what it's like to struggle with material. That struggle helps me to be a better teacher.

Hopefully in the shortest amount of time possible! In my free time I enjoy playing Ultimate Frisbee with the Houston club team, amateur web development, martial arts (Kung Fu!), and cooking.
