High School Life/Expert Profile

Expertise

I am a constructive, honest expert on adolescents. If you would like a trustworthy answer, then feel free to ask me; I will tell it like it is without the added frills. If you would like to receive an expedite, knowledgeable, polite response to your questions, please ask me! I try my best to reply to questions in less than 2 hours (this is in effect from 4PM to 10PM, Monday's through Friday's, and from 11AM to 10PM on Saturday's and Sunday's - I'm a full-time student.) I can answer mostly all questions that deal with adolescents. I can answer questions about homework, study tips, teacher issues, love, crushes, friendship, bullying, peer pressure, sports, self-esteem issues, fitting in, peer pressure, popularity, emotional issues, music, movies, crush issues, etc. I founded Velociteen in 2006 (http://www.velociteen.com), a website made especially by teens, for teens. I have gained a lot of experience from creating and managing that organization. I recently started a childcare referral business that mainly serves Minnesota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Illinois. Wildflower Babysitting (http://www.flowersitters.com) was started in July of 2009 and I now oversee around 500 sitters, nannies and daycare providers.

Experience in the area

I am a teenager, just like the teens asking the questions. It is better to have a person who is going through the same situations and facing the same experiences as you, as opposed to an adult. Adult's also have a different perspective than teens; would you rather ask a friend for advice, or a parent?

Education/Credentials

I am a good student with a 4.0 GPA. I strive to get good grades in all of my classes and I am currently taking advanced placement classes.
