My hope is to engage students in such a way that their knowledge, and desire for...

...and can tutor it. These would include developmental, neurobiological, personality, clinical, and cognitive. Most people need to learn two things about writing: how to make it natural, and how to organize it. I was taught by outstanding writing teachers: write first, organize later.

During my free time, I enjoy traveling, calisthenics, soccer, guitar...
