If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the...

...I also believe that education is not simply the memorization of facts and their regurgitation, but the method by which a person learns to pursue their passions. As a tutor, my aim is to do whatever it takes to light that fire and keep it burning.

...learning and discovering are forces that both fascinate and drive the direction of my life. As a researcher for documentary film, I have made learning about new things the center of my professional life.

I see myself...

...and grammar was instilled (okay, hammered) into my mind at an early age. Any questions brought up at the dinner table led directly to a reference book. Wondering where your meal came from? Pick up the Oxford Companion to Food. Any question about word origins? Grab your magnifying glass, and pour over the dictionary. This type of curiosity has followed me into adulthood. I'm a full-blown Wikipedian. My rsum goes beyond tutoring. From grant proposals...

...Test materials because the problem sets can be rather interesting to solve; it is more fun than just regular math and english. I genuinely believe that education is a privilege and a vital part of life. Without education, we would not be able to get anywhere in the world.
