Teaching
I’m still an undergrad at Columbia University, so this is not a list of a formal teaching experience. But I’m very passionate about learning and since I believe that one doesn’t learn until one begins to teach, I have been involved in a few teaching engagements over the years.

- Instructor at CTP Ethiopia
