Hobbies
I love playing electric violin in jazz clubs, at weddings and concerts. The kind of approach to thinking outside the box as a musician has similarly helped me engage many of the middle and high school students I taught in the Bronx for over 3 years. I have also won thousands of dollars worth of grants to enhance the science curricula of my students. In other words, I put in the extra effort to engage my students. I love the scaffolding process and that "aha" moment when he/she finally gets the big picture. Some of my favorite moments, are spent with my 3 year old son and wife playing soccer on the beach.
