...on neuroscience and biomedical science from Northern Arizona University. As long as I can remember, I have had a love for teaching. In elementary school I would come home in the afternoon and 'play school' with my stuffed animals, creating and grading worksheets for them.

I genuinely enjoy editing papers because I love seeing someone get their arguments across in ways they thought...

When I am not studying or tutoring, I enjoy volunteering.
