Connor is a musician and chess player now in his first year of law school. He started playing chess in 1st grade, and has been an enthusiastic lover of the game and the way chess' logical reasoning has lent itself to other parts of his life ever since. He has been working closely with kids for the past 8 years as a music teacher, math and english tutor, camp counselor, and youth chess instructor. His teaching philosophy reflects back to his own experiences as a kid where his most positive learning experiences were with teachers who really cared about what they were teaching. Connor is a lifelong learner himself!
