Math is a Game When I was young my Dad used to tell me that school was a game. My job was to win the game by learning and asking questions. Grades are how we keep score in the game. I like math because each problem is like a little puzzle just waiting to be solved. I love knowing that if I try hard enough I can always find the right answer.

I was born, October 27, I started going to First Montessori when I was three years old. I graduated from Chattahoochee High School in June I graduated 6 months early from Emory University. I have two masters degrees. The first one took 1.5 years to complete. For the second one, I was working full time and going to school part time so it took much longer. I went to school for twice as long as it took me to finish the first masters degree then I took a year off before completing my final year. I graduated in March 2011 with my Educational Specialist degree. I started that Degree in July 2009.
