Brief Biographical Sketch:

Hey! I'm a lifelong art kid who's enamored by Art History and Visual Art, which is exactly why I ended up as at Stanford studying Computer Science. Haha.

Previously I've taught the same class three times at the 2015 Fall and 2016 Spring Splash.

Previous Classes:

Michelangelo is Pissed Off: Why Art History has the Best Laughs.
Art History isn't just staring at dusty old paintings, it's an analysis of contemporary society, personal interpretation, and human emotion. And a valid human emotion is "incredibly pissed off". So let's take an Introduction to Art History while laughing at way too many historically-important butt jokes.

I will no longer be teaching this class. It has been recorded and you can find it at SplashX!

My goal is to make you laugh as you learn cool things!
