About Me

I am what happens when an artist and an engineer raise children together. I not only have a passion for both art and logic, but I enjoy bringing them together. I love to find the patterns in art and literature and dig at their biological basis, just as I love to find the beautiful, creative aspects of math and science. Over the years, having worked with and observed many fellow students, I've concluded that simply 'being smart' is not the key to succeeding in any subject; it's finding a reason to care about what you're learning, and managing the information thrown at you. Now, this is a wonderful, wonderful thing, because while I cannot make anyone 'smarter,' I can help them break information down until they understand it and show them where the subject can intersect their own passions. Would you understand The Odyssey better if we looked at Odysseus as the ancestor of Batman? That can be done. Would math make more sense to you if the numbers were people and the operations were events in a story? We can do that, too.
