I'm excited about tutoring across subjects, but I can be especially helpful in math, writing, ACT prep (I got a 36 in 2020), and college admissions. I'm excited to meet you!

I have done a wide variety of activities related to teaching: I led a Special Olympics Organization at my school, taught swimming lessons to all ages, coached a swim team, coached other sports, and have tutored younger students.

Beyond my educational and professional background, I love all things having to do with bicycles. In 2011, I biked across the United States, from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic coast. I loved the experience so much that the following year I biked the Pacific coast from Canada...

...networking with mentors and advisors I have been able to direct, produce, and edit my own visual and audio works digitally. I've had several articles and radio pieces published in the university's newspaper. These experiences have assisted me in honing my communication and leadership skills. My greatest joy, however, has been mentoring peers and fellow student-athletes along my journey. Education has allowed me to give back by teaching others what I've learned.

Whether it is with real-life examples or countless practice problems (or both!), I am willing to spend as much time as needed with my students to ensure they reach their full potential during our sessions. While I am not tutoring, I spend my free time playing piano, running, or cozying in with a good book.
