I have cleared at many large national tournaments and have won many smaller, regional tournaments. I am comfortable with both policy arguments (i.e. CP, DA, Theory) and kritiks. I am looking to judge and can also help to coach your team. If interested please contact me.
Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Tabula Rasa
Policy priority: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: I have no strong ideological debate dispositions. I am pretty laid back as a judge so read whatever you feel comfortable doing in front of me. As long as you are clear and not too too fast, you will be fine. I think link/perm analysis is very important, tech usually over truth, affs should probably be topical. Any other questions can be answered with my paradigm on Tabroom.com or an email (benwolf8@gmail.com).
