...instilling the zeal of learning in children is a difficult task, but a road that is worthwhile.

There is no dumb child, you just need patience and care to help the child see that they are...

I enjoy reading, movies, CrossFit, theater, and dancing, specifically Salsa...

Along with substitute teaching, I had the opportunity to work with young people through Temple University's Information, Technology, and Society Research Group's (ITSRG) BITS program. BITS (Building Information and Technology Skills) enabled me to teach young students from Philadelphia about urban planning, sustainability, and geographic information systems (GIS). While my focus is on social sciences, I do have experience...

In my free time, I enjoy giving back to my community. I volunteered at a dog shelter and read...
