Because of my desire to become a professor and my desire to help educate and inform others, I have undertaken a variety of...

...you do with that?", "So you must love Freud right?", "Hope you don't plan on getting a job." At first, I took these questions and comments at face value, allowing doubt to ever so slowly creep in and consume me.

I believe there always is an infinite world of information to learn and we should learn to enjoy and share what we learn.

I believe that students learn best when they are able to connect their studies with culture and personal interest. I meet the students at their needs and work with them to move them from where they are to where they need to be
