I teach Critical Thinking, English Composition, and Effective Speech at Pittsburgh Technical Institute (PTI), and I was born in Pittsburgh, but raised in Butler, PA; I was formerly a senior high school English teacher who taught British Literature to seniors for four and a half years at Butler Area Senior High School (BSHS, Butler, PA).
