I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Curtis

Certified Tutor

Greetings! I am a graduate of Johns Hopkins University Museum Studies Graduate program where I also received a Certification in Digital Curation. I received my undergraduate degrees from Elmhurst College in Chicago, IL where I double majored in History and Philosophy, while minoring in English Writing. I also spent a semester at the Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Studies at Kebel College, Oxford University.

I have been tutoring students for over a decade, from trombone lessons in high school, to my college writing center, to my current professional position in a local museum where I train and supervise approximately 20 volunteers and interns per year.

I enjoy spending time with my cat in my spare time, as well as listening to audiobooks while cooking and baking, going on walks with my partner, yoga, genealogy, numismatics (coins), and obsessing over the most recent shows.

I look forward to working with you!
