I am a graduate of the Wake Forest University School of Law in North Carolina where I obtained my Juris Doctorate Degree. I also received an bachelor's degree in communications from Brigham Young University. I greatly enjoy working with students who are trying to improve their academic performance. I have previously instructed online developmental writing courses for adults seeking to return to college and sought to improve their writing skills. I believe strongly that everyone has the talent needed to write and express themselves but that they need to learn how to structure and organize their writing so that their ideas can flow. For standardized testing I believe the most important factor in success is becoming comfortable with the test itself; learning the common ways the test makers misdirect a student’s attention and how to properly break down a problem. Outside of the classroom I have a great interest in film; I own hundreds of movies from various genres, eras, and countries. I also write fiction in my spare time.
