For several years, I competed in many Latin and Greek-related contests, winning national awards for my proficiency in the Classics. Early on, I started coaching and tutoring less advanced students, and found the experience both enjoyable and rewarding. Helping people understand and excel where understanding and excellence seemed impossible--this has driven me to seek every opportunity to help...

Dr. King had my IQ tested, then set about making sure the school gave me useful and creative outlets. He turned my life...
