Experience
Tutoring field placement at North Lake Alternative High School in St. Clair Shores, MI from 01/11-03/11. I want to be a tutor because I enjoy the opportunity to work with young adults and teaching them the foundations of country, explaining what events led us to where we are today and teaching them how the government works and why it works the way it does, citing examples from the past. Served three years in the US Army as a Cavalry Scout specializing in Reconnaissance and Urban Operations. Served from 1/05 to 2/05 in Baghdad, Iraq in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom III.

Hobbies
I enjoy studying subjects outside of my classroom work. On the side, I am studying 20th Century Detroit because I always wanted to understand better why the city has become what it has, and in the process, hope to develop ideas to make the city better. Also, since my time in the Middle East, I have studied Middle Eastern History for almost 2 years now, with special focus on Iran and Iraq. I enjoy following all of the local sports teams as well, and I am currently engaged and will be getting married in June of next year. Because of my age (27), I think that I have more real world experience than many of my peers at school, which I think is a plus when it comes to working with young adults.
