Hobbies
I play both baseball and basketball competitively, and value the kinetic realities of structured learning. (Kids, and all of us, need to move sometimes) I am currently writing a short story anthology involving true stories. I am a singer/songwriter in a duo, and find that music often helps in the learning process. I am a voracious reader, and as such very passionate about its ability to spark curiosity and imagination, as well as provide information in a less demanding format.
