I'm a current student at Columbia University studying sociology and business management. I'm passionate about helping others learn new material and reach new heights of academic excellence. In my free time, I'm usually visiting art museums, in a ballet class, or exploring the city. Feel free to reach out to me with any further questions!...

Then, we can set some goals to be entirely clear about what we plan to accomplish during the session.
