About
I left a career in computer science to become a math teacher. I've had the honor of being named teacher of the year and last year placed as a state finalist for the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science instruction. This is the highest award a teacher can receive in our country. My philosophy is, remove the stress and learning math will become enjoyable!
