Hobbies
My current hobbies/interests include reading, teaching, coaching, playing sports, and doing business. With regards to learning, I use formal and informal sources. I love audiobooks, the Khan Academy, and apps like Coursera. Teaching is a way for me to "give" (knowledge/tools/self-confidence) and stay in tuned with society's break-throughs. Every class I teach carries behind a level of study and preparation, that helps someone else thrive. Let's start the journey!
