I am a member of the Northeastern Downbeats, a co-ed a cappella group...

Throughout my career, whether in the cockpit of a US Naval jet or working on strategies for an asset allocation modes, I actively use math everyday. My love of math is profound and my three Honor Roll children are shining examples. I have formally and informally tutored hundreds of pupils for 35+ years and believe that students need to understand concepts rather than memorize them.

I am a lifelong learner, and I look forward to helping students with their studies as I work through my own. After graduating Princeton, I worked at a number of tech firms, including Google, but I've recently found myself back in the classroom as I prepare to pursue a PhD in Psychology.

With test prep I've found that supplemental work on fundamental skills helps students improve their scores much more than working through...
