Summer Tech Tutoring is open!
Irvine’s IPSF just announced their summer school sessions. So to coincide with their offerings I have opened Summer Tech Tutoring to align with their schedule.
If you are attending summer sessions at Beacon Park, I offer after-class pickup for technology tutoring from 1pm to 5pm. Then from 5pm to 6pm we play games until you pick your child up.
Or you can simply choose just 2-hour sessions. If interested, click here.

Capstone / Master’s Thesis
2015 Master’s Thesis / Capstone
In this section, you will find my many hours of labor researching in the library and in the classroom. This was a joint effort. I could not have completed without my amazing Capstone Partner, Craig Richardson.
The paper was completed on May 1, 2015.
The highlights from the Capstone was presented to the colleagues at my school in a 45 minutes presentation. Thank you so much to all those who attended and contributed to my presentation.
To see the full version of this Capstone, it is available at the Concordia University Library.
