...levels of math and science for the past 14 years. I am driven by a desire to help people succeed because I believe that almost everything in this world comes down to how we were taught.

I keep chasing improvement even today. As a student at New York University, I study under some of the most talented professors...

...to be invested in, rather than just being lectured at by an adult. I am particularly qualified for English/Language Arts and History tutoring. It ended up being a monologue my character spoke that was dragging the play down. While it was well-written, it simply didn't fit within the world of the show. I made the decision: the speech had to go. But I wasn't upset. I knew that it was for the good of the...
