About Me

I graduated from Sam Houston State University with a Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences in Visual Communication and a double minor in English annd Studio Art. I believe that the different methods of teaching and the different academic disciplines affect each other. Strengthening one area of study will more than likely allow students to be prepared to excel in another area of expertise. This past summer, I had the privilege of tutoring a high school student in writing. When we had reached our final tutoring session, I was amazed to hear some of the ideas which she shared -- ideas which she wanted to write about. Although I do tutor a few other subjects, it is the writing that I look forward to most. Outside of academia, I enjoy healthy cooking, being outside, and spending time with friends.

Q&A with Lauren

At times in my experience, being given the tools for intuitive, creative, and structured thinking proves more beneficial than linear facts. I believe that if a student is given the credit for having a gift in some undiscovered area, that this given credit will then allow the student to have the confidence, and the patience, of letting themselves be discovered. I like to, occasionally, include things like discussions, physical exercises, and academic exercises from other areas of study to help cultivate an environment of learning. If I am placed in a situation both blindfolded and with my ears covered, then I must rely on some other method of identifying the world around me. The painter must learn how to see. The writer must learn how to listen.
