While it is true I have been blessed with skill, it is my teaching style and easy-going personality that set me apart. I am an Analyst by day. Having sharp analytical skills greatly enhances my effectiveness as a teacher. I am able to provide every student a truly custom experience - no cookie-cutter formulas. Careful observations and thoughtful planning afford the luxury of keeping perspectives on the big picture (rock star vs. playing just one song at a friend's wedding) and the tiny details that only wisdom can address.
