What are the most effective ways to make decisions under pressure in Economics?
While it might be more time-consuming, I recommend a comprehensive approach to collecting data because it allows expanding model and scenario analyses if needed to dive deeper into the research later on.

Inner City School in Tallahassee
Children
I worked with students from kindergarten to second grade. They came from family that have drugs issues or economic problems. Because of problems at home, they tended to underperform academically. However, after the year of working with them, their academic performance improved significantly. It was truly a transforming experience. My students taught me love and care transform life.

Got business sponsor and the University's pledge last year. Finally we had a groundbreaking event today. What so cool about this project is that it is a student-centric endeavor. Students will own the business, run it and manage it. The journey we embark on the inspiration of students helping students succeed - part of the cafe proceeds will go into a student scholarship. Students helping students. Today we break ground, tomorrow we change mind. Stay tuned for my update.
