Graduation Reality and Dual-Role Skills (GRADS) at Alan T. Sugiyama

I am a math teacher who has been working with Interagency Academy since early 2000. I hold a BA in English from the University of Georgia, a Masters in Teaching from Seattle Pacific University, and am a National Board Certificated teacher in AYA Math, endorsed in English, Mathematics and Physical Education. Along with teaching I love playing outdoors in the PNW with my wife and kids.

“Mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations, or algorithms: it is about understanding.”

William Paul Thurston- American mathematician

I enjoy helping students explore and envision different future options for careers and post-secondary education. Students and alumni please feel free to email me for career search questions and assistance.
