Certified Tutor

I hold a Master of Business Administration from McGill University and a Master of Finance. As a CFA Charterholder and Certified Financial Risk Manager, I have a deep commitment to the field of Finance and Economics and to sharing practical knowledge with others.

Over the course of my career, I have worked extensively in portfolio management, private equity, and M&A, evaluating companies and designing investment strategies across diverse sectors. These experiences have shown me how much confidence and opportunity a solid foundation in Economics and Finance can create, which inspires my passion for tutoring.

I specialize in tutoring Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Corporate Finance, Financial Markets, and Investment Management. Among these, I particularly enjoy helping students connect theoretical models to real-world applications, as this often sparks curiosity and makes the material feel relevant and rewarding.

My teaching philosophy centers on clarity, patience, and encouragement. I believe that when complex ideas are broken down into relatable examples, every student can gain mastery and confidence. My tutoring style is structured yet flexible, tailored to each student's goals and learning pace.

Outside of my professional work, I enjoy hiking, exploring behavioral economics, and mentoring aspiring professionals. These interests enrich my perspective and help me inspire students to see Economics and Finance not just as academic subjects, but as tools to improve their lives.
