Q: If you were not a teacher what would you be?

I would probably run my own eBay business.

Q: What is your favorite topic to teach?

My favorite thing to teach is logs and exponentials because I see the connection to financial math.

Q: If you could meet a historical person, dead or alive, who would you meet?

Ted Williams, because he was a tremendous baseball player but left to go fight in the war.  He was also my dad’s favorite.

Q: What did you want to be as a kid?

I wanted to be a Sports Center news anchor. I wanted to talk about the highlights.  However, it was too much writing for me.

Probably The Sandlot.

Invisibility.

Q: Who was your favorite teacher?

My favorite teacher was my junior and senior year Latin teacher Mr. Medeiros.  I had no interest in Latin but he made it funny and interesting with stories.
