...ecosystems drives my passion to become an ecologist! My goal is to help students view learning as a positive experience! When students learn with me, they usually find that it is a very relaxed, hands-on, and visual process.

It is my...

In addition, for the last two years, I have been a trainer at the Apple Store, teaching private and group lessons in technology.
