Personal Background:

My full name is Robert William Lewis III but, for most purposes I go by Trip Lewis ("Trip" being short for Triple or the Third). I guess you could say I am also following my heritage in more than just my name, as both my father and grandfather (and that line may perhaps extend further back than that) were both educators. For the past 8 years, I have worked as a full-time gymnastics instructor and facility manager at [|Kingswood Gymnastics], and continue to due so on a limited basis while in the BEd programme at STU. I am also an Executive member of the New Brunswick Gymnastics Association and, as such, am heavily involved with gymnastics within the province as well as on a National scale.

Ideally I would like to teach English or Social Studies at the High School level.

Interests:

Obviously, one of my main interests is the sport and world of gymnastics (specifically, Men's Gymnastics). I am also an amateur photographer, though lately I have not had too much time behind the lens. Samples of my photography can be viewed at my [|photoblog]. Other interest include: mountain and road biking; reading; and cooking. When not doing any of the above I can usually be found behind a computer (see below).

Technology Background:

Thankfully, my father was very interested in computers and their role in education so as a child I was introduced to computers and technology at a very young age. Currently I have five (working) computers in my apartment and probably close to the same number that are, at the present moment, non-operational. I am well-versed in numerous software suites and applications, including but not limited to: Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Audition, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Encore, Office 200x, and others.
