I am passionate about serving my community and hope that through tutoring I can reach out to local youth. While attending the Air Force Academy and Harvard, I have learned about discipline, dedication to hard work, and organization. I believe it is these life skills that aid in success in the classroom and building relationships. Working with young adults is a vocation for which I have always been passionate. Everything from being a camp counselor, to leading a cycling trip across the United States, to volunteer tutoring and mentoring, to being an Air Force pilot, I have experience sharing knowledge with others. Beyond teaching procedures or rote memorization of facts, I desire to teach the lessons behind the specific skill set so students understand the underlying concepts. My goal is for them to answer the question: "Why?" for each lesson so I know they truly grasp the foundation of each topic. Thank you for considering me to instruct and mentor your child as he or she pursues the learning process!
