Private tutor in Oakland, CA
Education
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Film Studies from the University of California at Santa Barbara. I am a graduate from De La Salle High School.
Experience
I have six years of experience at St. Paul's Episcopal School as assistant director of the After School Program and substitute teacher. Before that, I spent two years as a youth development volunteer with Peace Corps in Bulgaria. There I lived and worked in an orphanage in a small village. I taught English to all ages, computer classes, guitar lessons, drum lessons, and youth rock band. I also traveled the country raising awareness for Human Trafficking. I have eight years of teaching experience in formal and informal settings with native and non native English speakers. Before my teaching career and the Peace Corps, I worked in the film and television industry in Hollywood as a Director of Photography.

Hobbies
I enjoy playing guitar, watching movies, hiking, and traveling. I play guitar in a rock band that plays throughout the Bay Area. I am an active financial markets trader. I have been trading equities (stocks and options) and futures for the past five years. I also produce, shoot, and edit videos for local bands, local organizations, friends, and myself. In the future, I look forward to visiting the Pyramids in Egypt, Mt. Fuji in Japan, and riding on the world's fastest train.
