...leather chairs and doze off. The lab was really my second home. Gladly, I have matured from merely vapid admiration. These instruments are no longer my means of entertainment, but rather, the medium through which I complete my own research projects.

...fun new ways to learn material. In the past I have made interactive games, songs, and helped walk students through diagrams and graphs that help elucidate information. When teaching, I am patient, persistent, and thorough.
