What are you most passionate about in your field? Training -- helping others to achieve their full potentials in the industry
What aspect of your teaching style is the most distinctive and/or memorable? I have the exceptional ability to explain complex concepts in ways that students with no background in the field or those who are struggling even after thorough research on a topic, can understand. I can’t count the number of times I’ve had students tell me, “Now I understand. You have been so helpful.”

What is something interesting about you that most people don't know? I used to wear dreadlocks. I wanted to be a Rastafarian.
