About
I'm a non-traditional older student with a lot of experience in human services. I've worked these last several years as a teacher's assistant on the grounds of a mental institution. My students are high school aged with emotional and behavioral disabilities. I have made great strides in gaining the students confidence and trust by stetting up a recording studio on the premises and I teach advanced math and chemistry. I was a medic for 15 years and I am a musician.
