Hobbies
I enjoy games of all kinds, including card games, board games and bowling. I am also highly interested in education. I try to present mathematics as a game of logic, and in doing so, I hope to go beyond simply helping a student with their homework. I try to engender a true understanding of numbers and the logical processes that acompany their manipulation. I am also a musician of some skill. I have played guitar for 16 years, and have composed and recorded classical music, rock music, and video game music. I am particularly strong in the area of improvisation, but I can teach the techniques involved in all these areas.
