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.

Certified Tutor


I have taught at the college and university level since 2017 in the English and Humanities departments. Working with thousands of students has given me a deep understanding of how to help a student succeed, regardless of the challenges they feel they are facing. I deeply care about the person I am working with and will do what it takes to help them succeed according to who they are and their needs. I meet everyone where they are at and provide the skills and tools they need to get them where they need to go. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am deeply passionate about writing in all subjects and helping students in English, Humanities, Philosophy, and the Social Sciences. I am also able to help with test preparations. I also have developed a unique writing methodology that guarantees continued successful outcomes. I can also help students navigate the often-hidden expectations of academic life by assisting them to build success skills that are lasting and transferable. I hold an M.F.A in Poetry from Seattle Pacific University, an M.A. in Literature & Writing/Publishing from DePaul University, and a B.A. in Philosophy from North Central College. In my free time, I love reading, hiking in nature, and playing guitar.

I am looking forward to working with you and helping you succeed!
