Hobbies
I am especially effective at reaching rebellious/disinterested students. I dropped out of high school at 15 and did not return to school until later in life. My history gives me clout with disenchanted students. Current academic interests include the epistemological problems of natural rights philosophy, liberalism broadly conceived, and capital theory. Other interests include weight lifting, martial arts, and the music of the 80s and 90s.
