Certified Tutor
I'm a graduate of the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. During my time in university, I developed strong analytical and communication skills, which allow me to break down complex topics into clear, manageable steps. I take pride in adapting my teaching style to fit each student's unique learning needsensuring that you don't just memorize a process, but truly understand the concepts and how to apply them.
I've been tutoring math for over six years, working with students on everything from Pre-Algebra to Mathematical Analysis (an upper-division college course). I'm proud to say that no student who's worked with me weekly has ever failed their class, and I intend to keep that record going.
Most of my experience is with college students, but I've also worked with many high schoolers and adult learners. I specialize in the Calculus sequence (Pre-Calculus through Multivariable Calculus), but I'm also very comfortable tutoring Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and other foundational math courses.
Whatever your academic goals are -- mastering a tough topic, acing your next exam, passing your course, or reaching for an A -- I'm here to help you get there. My approach is simple: break your goal down into manageable steps, and provide the support, direction, and encouragement you need to take each one.

I love playing chess and disc golf! Those are my favorite games. I have been playing guitar for more than 20 years and have written a ton of my own songs. I'm also pretty good at piano. I also love cooking -- I make some stellar ribs. And of course, I love thinking about and doing math. Logic is awesome!
