I am a high school teacher teaching computers and career life education. I have a degree in Criminology and a Bachelor of Education.
Interests
I enjoy anything to do with technology or anything to do with the trades. I love working with my hands and do small projects renovating my home in my spare time.
Social Media Accounts
Now this is where I am most likely lacking. I do not have Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, nor Reddit. I do have Facebook that I go on once in a blue moon. I have accessed most of these social media accounts at one point or another but found myself wasting time looking at other people living their lives instead of living my own.
