Hello all and welcome to my blog. Today is November 12, 2025, and this is my first blog post. I'd like to start by saying that never in my life would I recommend approaching education the way that I did. And I say that for a variety of reasons, not just because it's difficult and causes burnout. It's also not something that I talk about often, because it doesn't define me. In this post I'm going to focus on how I did what I did but also why I did it- and why I wouldn't do it
