I was born September 20th, 1967. I grew up in a blue collar family that read quite a bit. Without benefit of organized religion, my parents taught me to be considerate of the feelings of other people, no matter what differences they may have from me. I'm an educated idiot, with a Bachelor of Arts in English, a Master of Arts in Teaching, and a Master of Arts in English. I worked in transportation logistics for 15 years and went back to school to get certified to teach. I taught at a small rural school for three years before having my contract non-renewed for what could probably best be described as cultural differences. I am currently looking for a teaching position because I love teaching. I do my best thinking when I'm not thinking about thinking.
