Deploying and Debugging Remotely with Intellij
Published:
In this blog post I will show you how to sync an Intellij IDEA project with a remote server (called deploying the project to a server), and how to debug remote runs of that project.

Upward Bound Program
Mathematics Tutoring for the Upward Bound Program, Waco/University High Schools through the Waco ISD and ESC Region 12, 2019
The Upward Bound Program is an initiative by the U.S. Department of Education for “high school students from low-income families; and high school students from families in which neither parent holds a bachelor’s degree.” The goal of this program is “increase the rate at which participants complete secondary education and enroll in and graduate from institutions of postsecondary education.” I worked as a paid tutor in general mathematics/physics as well as for the math/science portion of the ACT and SAT tests.
