About
I currently live in Pittsburgh, PA (USA).
I have also lived, studied and worked in Africa (Ghana) and Australia (Adelaide).
I have about four years of professional work experience in the IT industry ... worldwide. I love to travel, swim and bike.
I am a teaching assistant at Carnegie Mellon University because I love to help other students understand concepts. I wouldn't consider myself an extra bright student, so understanding things fundamentally and with illustrations helped me to grasp concepts. In addition, I love to share my discoveries with other learners who typically find my approach simple and insightful.
I will enjoy working with you on your learning journey.read more
