I'm an AP English Literature teacher currently working at a contemplative Buddhist school, where my students combine daily meditation with a love for literature. I bring patience, rigor, and a focus on clarity to every session.

Before I went up to the mountains, I studied a great deal. I have an MA in Buddhist Classics from Dharma Realm Buddhist University and a BA in English from Pomona College, CA, as well as five Associate's Degrees in various humanities subjects. I enjoy teaching, and see it as a learning experience.

Look forward to learning with you!
