我毕业于位于美丽的华盛顿州切尼镇的东华盛顿大学。在那里，我获得了教育学学位，主修物理学，辅修非洲研究。毕业后，我在多所高中和初中代课。与此同时，我还在晚上给所有年龄段的人上攀岩入门课。去年，我搬到了美丽的科罗拉多州，在蒙特贝罗地区教大一新生干预数学。尽管我可以指导各种科目(代数1/2，几何，物理和化学)，但我对代数1和物理最感兴趣。我喜欢教代数1，因为它是任何高等数学的坚实基础。如果你纠结于此，那么你以后的数学生涯将是一场挣扎。当我的学生终于有了“啊哈”的时刻，明白了如何处理一个方程，这是最好的感觉。物理是我的另一个爱好，因为它解释了世界是如何运作的! You want to know how fast a car was going when it drifted around that corner or understand why there is absolutely no sound in space? I’d love to explain it to you. Everyone learns in different ways. For some it’s auditory, some it’s visual, and for most it’s kinesthetic. I want to figure out how you learn and go from there. If you need to make angles with your body to know the difference between acute and obtuse then let’s do it! If we need to write a song with vocabulary for you to remember the terms then I am in. I want learning to be fun because that is how you are going to retain information. Outside of work I love rock climbing, acro yoga, 'upcycling' old clothes, watching movies like Lord of the Rings, and attempting to draw/paint.
