** June 2017 Update: Please note that I presently work largely with students seeking extracurricular or advanced instruction in programming, robotics, and mathematics.

The first step is getting to the "hmm!" moment -- that moment when you realize that the particular topic you're studying really does m... Read more

Some of us need extra support. And my passion is coaching adolescents and young adults in transition. These transitions include starting a new school, going away to college, happily finding employment, and navigating personal and work relationships.

According to Erikson's 8 stages of psychosocial development, adolescence lasts from 12 to 18 years of age, and young adulthood can span from age 20 to... Read more
