"They might not need me, but they might. I'll let my head be just in sight; a smile as small as mine might be precisely their necessity." Emily Dickinson

From a young age, I always knew that I was passionate about helping people. I found this quote and have lived by it ever since. I attribute my success in the workplace, regardless of the industry, to genuinely caring about finding solutions that are appropriate for individuals and their unique needs. Having gained experience in both student and teacher roles, I have developed an appreciation for every opportunity to learn and instruct.

My teaching philosophy is equally simple. I always believed in leaving things (and people) better than when I found them. Educational development is not just about developing the skills needed to help individuals improve in their academic journey but also about providing them with opportunities and tools that will help them for the rest of their lives. I have discovered that this approach not only increases student engagement, impact, and enthusiasm but ultimately results in a cohesive team driving to build up capable, confident, and empowered individuals in their lifelong pursuits.
