  • May 21 2026 – Finals Season

    I am currently working at a high school as an Instructional Aide, think teacher assistant. It’s been a great year, and a privilege to be part of these students’ lives. But next week is finals. Time to show what was learned this year. And after that it will be eight wonderful weeks of summer vacation.

    So lots of work for the next week, then lots of free time after that.

    I am currently working on starting my first year of teaching Math in a high school next year. Really excited to have the opportunity to try teaching Algebra and Geometry full time.

    Received my offer letter at the end of last week. It has been a lot of work to get to this point, but I’m super excited about it.

    Back to helping out for the rest of the day. Hope you have a great day!

  • Why Blog?

    I am starting this blog because I desire to write. To think. To Share.

    I want to be able to post as much as I want and know I am not bothering anyone. When I post on other social media sites sometimes it is easy to feel self-conscious. Here I can post as much as I like, and no one is bothered. No one’s feed is overloaded.

    So, if you check this site. Just know you will find a lot of posts by me. Just me. And there might be way too much or way too little. But this is the corner of the internet where I do not have to care about that.

    Feel free to comment or reach out. Always interested in what others are thinking.
