Hi, My name is Anselm Miranda and I am one of the instructors for College Bound.

What drives me everyday is my love of learning, my family,and all the wonderful people I get to meet.

My favourite food is "everything". I love to try just about everything under the sun, but my favourite indulgence has got to be a great burger and fries.

I also have two cats and a great big labrador-retreiver named Cairo.
