I have tutored and working as a Laboratory Assistant for SUNY Adirondack in Chemistry. I enjoy helping students see the sciences in different lights so that hopefully one type of approach will work depending on the students learning and memory process.

For example how rainbows are formed by diffracti... Read more

I’ve graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy with a minor in Computer Science, earned an Associate’s in Applied Science degree in Data Processing, a Certificate in Computer Programming, and eight graduate credits in Philosophy. Programming first excited me because it’s artistic science. It lets the programmer describe elegant ways to tackle problems that the computer can solve efficiently because the programmer finds fast ways for it to do that. So I’ve t... Read more
