Hi everyone! I put together this page as a fun project to showcase a bit of my background and reasons I want to intern at Khan Academy this summer. Thanks HN!

Good luck my man! I wish you the best.

P.S. that's an amazing domain name. Do you think they might wanna buy it from you?

P.P.S. Maybe you could teach a few classes on video a la Khan to show your expertise and belief in their mission/etc? Maybe you could even tutor... I could see you teaching a 1-on-1 class for a boy named boyce about 'How To Go To Class'. It would be a moneymaker!

Seconded. @beneater now runs our exercise framework full-time, and our paths crossed via this github repo.

A bit of friendly feedback. When I view the site in Firefox or Chrome (width of 1100px), the paragraph that starts "Last year" is covered up by the photo "Pitching MassChallenge". It only shows if my browser width is at least 1185px. Great stuff btw!

Ah, thanks for the heads up. I hadn't tested it extensively, but I'll fix that up.

Why do you have yellow strikes through all the key words?

That's highlighting, not strikethrough
