I received an undergraduate degree and a master's degree from the University of Southern Mississippi. My undergraduate was a double major in biology and chemistry, and I graduated summa cum laude in 2012. I completed my master's in biochemistry in 2014. I am now at the University of Texas in Austin pursuing an additional degree (combined BS/MS) in computer science. I have always had a passion for computers and programming, and I'd like to unify that passion with my scientific knowledge, perhaps in the development of scientific software and software to make science more accessible to the general public. I have been tutoring students professionally since 2009, generally as part of my duties as a teaching assistant, a position I held in both the chemistry and biology departments until obtaining my master's degree in 2014. I have done freelance tutoring for several years, generally in biochemistry. I enjoy teaching biology, chemistry, mathematics, and english/literature courses. I think the most important thing that we can convey as tutors or teachers is that there is great joy in the learning process, regardless of the subject matter, and taking the time to master one subject will make the mastery of others easier because the same learning process applies to all disciplines. In my tutoring, I tend to focus both on the presentation of information and practical experience, with a goal to continuously illustrate the relationships between abstract concepts, theoretical problems, and real world utility.
