One of my former teachers gave me some advice while I was still in college, pursuing a career as a high school English teacher. He told me to always remember to "meet the students where they are." It sounded like an important enough teaching philosophy to wrap my head around and seemed almost beautiful in its simplicity.

I've thoroughly enjoyed integrating the many fields of study in a liberal arts education into my degree. This past year, I received the opportunity to spend six months in Ecuador as an intern with Paz y Esperanza (Peace and Hope International).
