Originally from:

My family is from the East coast (New Jersey and Connecticut). Raised mostly in Corvallis and Eugene Oregon. As a child we moved around a lot, having lived in LA, Oxford England and Nijmegen, Neatherlands.

Why I Teach:

To empower students to work for justice. Also, teenagers are incredibly fun to work with.

Most powerful teaching technique:

I am a big fan of building in as much individual and small group instruction as possible; ideally, staying as focused on each student's individual needs as possible.
I like creating opportunities for students to have that ""A-ha"" moment when it all makes sense. "

Why are the subjects you teach important?:

Favorite quotes:

John 13:34, "I give you a new commandment, Love your neighbor as yourself, as I have loved you."
