I learned economics in business school at Duquesne University and subsequently worked in wholesale banking and investment banking. My approach to teaching economics is that you cannot live in the US and not have a basic understanding of economics. The terminology and the drawing of graphs may elude you, but the concepts are embedded in you. I use aspects of my students lives and their interests to create meaning. Economics can be fun and economics can be exciting if you have the right instructor

I consider myself to be friendly, God-fearing and dedicated to improving the lives of all my family, friends and people with whom I come in contact. This includes not only spirit and body but also one's mind. Learning is not only important but it is worthwhile as it helps develop one's mind.

Hello! Let me give you a snapshot of my background and passions in order to pique your interest in selecting me as your Varsity Tutor. I am a graduate of Indiana University of Pennsylvania and Duquesne University, both schools are located in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania region. My degrees include a BA and MA in Political Science and an MBA. I was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Air Force and served honorably for 21 years, retiring in 2016. My military career allowed me to "see the world" as an aviator, and I continue to travel in my current job as a charter pilot.
