I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from UCLA as well as Post Graduate training in working with students with Asperger's Syndrome. I get tremendous satisfaction
from helping students achieve their full potential. Sometimes this means more than solely tutoring on the academic material itself but also developing effective and efficient study habits and, for students with Asperger's, implementing strategies to compensate for neurological deficits.

Adobe Photoshop

I'm a professional photographer who has used Photoshop for more than 15 years. If you let me know what part of the application you need help with, I'll be glad to let you know if it's in my area of expertise. My clients have included Clairol, Redbook magazine, Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola, ABC Television, HBO as well as numerous celebrities including Jane Seymour and Dennis Hopper.

Law

I've taken many law classes (4.0 gap) and did Moot Court but did not graduate law school. I did write several appeal briefs for both the Appellate Division in NY and the highest court, the Court of Appeals. I also wrote a piece on the history, development, and implementation of Sexual Harassment Law in the U.S.

Special Needs

I was trained by Dr. Ivar Lovaas in working with special needs children when I was a psych major at UCLA. I received further training from the Asperger Center for Education and Training in NY. I've worked at The Mosaic school in NY, which is devoted solely to children with autism. I spend countless hours with my two cousins who are special needs kids; I've not only lived with them for months at a time to provide support and intervention, but I've also chaperoned them around Disneyworld.

Photography

I've been a professional commercial advertising photographer for more than 20 years. My clients have included Clairol, Warner Brothers, Redbook Magazine, Coca-Cola, HB0, CBS Television, Procter & Gamble, Federated department stores, and many celebrities including Jane Seymour, Dennis Hopper, David Letterman. I also taught photography and was head of the photography dept at The InterContinental University when they had a campus in Los Angeles. I've also taught continuing ed classes in photography...

ADD/ADHD

I was trained at the Asperger Center for Education and Training in New York, which is a division of Spectrum Services. The challenges facing students with ADD/ADHD are very similar to students on the Asperger spectrum because they both involve effective management of Executive Functions.

Aspergers

I have a degree in psychology from UCLA and studied with Dr. Ivar Lovaas, one of the pioneers in autism and Asperger's Syndrome. I'm also certified as a college coach by the Asperger Center for Education and Training, a division of Spectrum Services in New York. Also, I've worked for the Mosaic Foundation, which is a school for kids on the autistic/Asperger spectrum.

Autism

I've studied under autism pioneer Dr. Ivar Lovaas when I was a psychology student at UCLA. I have worked and taught at the Mosaic School and Mosaic Foundation for children with autism. I've also received special training from Spectrum Services in NY, which is dedicated to treatment of people on the autism or Asperger spectrum.

Film

I studied film production at AFI (American Film Institute) and UCLA. I've directed two music videos and done rewrites and script analysis for several writers. However, most of what I learned was from my father who was a television producer. I'm a former member of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences.
