...the rules of grammar, and the events of history are the way they are, and by lifting the curtain on the intricacies of the subject matter. I believe that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake. Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing...

...and procedures is important, memorizing mathematical formulas without appreciating the concepts is akin to memorizing the lines of a Shakespeare play without paying attention to the underlying prose. My strongest subjects are linear algebra and pre-calculus though I am proficient at tutoring all high school and college underclassmen mathematical subjects. I hope that my passion is contagious and that all of my students leave me not only having learned the material but understanding the beauty...

...confidence in your math skills and help you grow your ability. Besides tutoring University of Massachusetts students, I interned at a surgical instruments manufacturing company called Surgistar. I aided in doubling their blade production ability using mathematics and simulation. Also, I patented a premium, adjustable bike seat to address current bicycling discomforts (currently I am seeking to license my invention to manufacturers to produce my seat). I specialize in optimization, so let's have fun learning...

...to understand the material. I strongly believe that understanding concepts is just as important as being able to work out technical problems, and that all students (regardless of perceived mathematical intelligence) have the ability to do so. I also understand how mathematics functions to gatekeep some students from certain majors and jobs later in life, and it is my hope that I can help provide access to these majors and jobs for the students whom...
