Biography:

Liam was originally born in El Paso, TX but spent his life growing up in Santa Fe, NM. After graduating cum laude in his Majors of Biomechanics/Anatomy and Physiology and a Summa cum laude Minor in Classical Latin Language, he began teaching Latin Language in secondary education for the next 5 years. With a newfound love and appreciation for all things related to language and linguistics, Liam finds himself back in academia (his natural habitat). He is looking to further deepen his understanding for language to eventually pivot him in to further specialized instruction at the higher level. His end goal is to be a tenured and distinguished professor in the Classics. 
Liam loves being outside. Whether it be bike-packing, hiking, or simply romping around Albuquerque on his gravel bike, he enjoys being active when he is not working out his brain in school. He has a crazy love for etymology, and you can catch his many, many, many etymological and Latin grammar videos on YouTube and TikTok! He also has a podcast where he dives deep into Latin instruction, Greek Mythological stories, and all things related to etymology. He loves what he does and tries to imbue the masses with his passion as best he can.
