English is one of my first languages. Versed in the nuances of a few major native dialects of the language, I hope to improve my skills and share my knowledge by interacting with others on this forum.

I majored in physics and music at Williams College, MA, and taught math at The Pennington School, NJ, for two years. Currently a PhD student in civil engineering at Johns Hopkins University, MD.
