Filmmaker
Making short films makes me a better teacher.
Here are some examples of my work:

Marty Badoian - 50 Year Teacher
The Math Wing of Canton High School was named after legendary teacher Marty Badoian. Hw taught for over 50 plus years! Badoian was known not only as an extraordinary math teacher, with nationally ranked math teams to his credit but as a mentor to students on how to simply be a great human being. (Alums in Silicone Valley still hold "Marty Parties" to celebrate the lessons of friendship & networking that he taught.) )
