I am a Digital Literacy Tutor and an Adjunct Professor who teaches: Critical Thinking, Business, Business Writing, College Business, High School Business, Study Skills, and Study Skills and Organization.

I am most passionate about Business Development and Start-up. My parents retired from their family business after operating it for forty years.

I am the creator of an Entrepreneurship Course and its accompanying textbook. I have owned and operated two businesses. And I'm passionate about helping Business students discover and design viable business ideas.

While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about study strategies and building great study habits.

My goal is to help students with procrastination, study test anxiety, and develop daily routines.

My goal is to help struggling students understand the process of online learning. Education gives you the opportunity to grow as an individual. It also helps you develop communication skills and improve your quality of life.
