Rush

Certified Tutor

I LOVE inter-disciplinary subjects including Art, Genetics, Law, Mathematics, Business Management and I have a special interest in ethics and Philosophy. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree double majoring in Genetic Engineering and Art with a minor in Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin - Madison with time spent in residence at Stanford University in Vision Science psychology and a postgraduate diploma in Ethics as well as a Juris Doctor from the University of Western Ontario with a lawyer license from the Law Society of Ontario for over a decade. I hold a Masters in Business Administration degree from the Richard Ivey School of Business and a Masters in Fine Arts degree from the University of Wisconsin - Madison with artist-in-residence time spent at Brown University (Rhode Island School of Design) and Stanford University. I have worked as a university lecturer for foundational undergraduate courses in Biological Sciences and as a university research scientist in Molecular Biology as well as a university hospital Genetics Counselor. I have worked as a Web Engineer and Creative Director in Silicon Valley, California (CA) and enjoy coding in Javascript and Python with artistic elements from Adobe products like Photoshop, Illustrator, and others. I work as a lawyer and a legal advocate from my home office while schooling my son online in academics with extracurriculars through a local adventure club I run with five other families for weekly recreational outdoor adventures alongside socializing with a local network of thirty four families to seventy two children. I teach with a singular focus on the best interests of my students and will often advocate for my students -- particularly my special needs students who are not neurotypical -- beyond my classroom though writing recommendation letters and encouraging my students to apply for university programs or other educational opportunities for which they may not otherwise think they qualify. Looking forward to our intellectual journeys together!
