Mrs Barbier was my 8th grad math teacher. She recommended that I not be selected into honors Geometry freshman year. I. Was. Devastated. Honors let’s you get a 5.0 for an “A”. Non honors gets you a maximum of 4.0. As a freshman, it’s like an AUTOMATIC death sentence to attend a crap college like a 3rd tier Ivy
But guess who taught retarded geometry!? Mr Nelson. He was a great great mentor. He’s important here in #SiliconValley because I remember my 4.2 GPA.
Acing Geometry with the dumb sophomores (versus the genius freshman in honors Geometry) allowed me time to be creative while earning my “A”. Angle-side-angle this startup truth that led me to the pinnacle of #ENGR145s: “I know why this CHRISTmass bulldog is SO CUTE!!!”

Derivation de la Mr Nelson:
This Christmas bulldog’s cute holiday outfit is a sequel to The @munchkinTeddy. Which is a sequel to Gund. Prequel Snuffles #ENGR145s
Derivation de la Mr Nelson (and Dr Tom Kosnik:
Derivation de la Mr Nelson and Dr Moore:
Maybe I will get Mr Nelson and posthumous doctorate because derivations matter.

Btw, I connected mentor Mr Nelson with Miss Bassetto’s PQRST (6th grade English) to study ahead and behind. I put a method, recipe and protocol to the madness of entrepreneurship #cs183PQRST
