...of classical educationprovided fertile ground for my work as a tutor. By engaging deeply with a range of texts, from Euclid's Elements to Pascal's Penses, I developed close reading skills and a love for all things literary.

...true symbiotic exchange. Upon graduation in 2015, I moved to New York City to attend college. Texas farm to New York City; it's a tale as old as time. Its status as a well-trot cliche, however, did not prepare me for the ultimate transformation my life, as well as my writing, would undergo. My dialogue started to move faster; my stories became larger and more universal, the narrators more abstract. I wrote twenty-three stage-plays during...
