...of Wisconsin - Stout. My scenic route through college was the product of indecision and confusion regarding my future because I couldn’t find a way to mesh all of the things in life that excite me into one career.

I hope to use my diverse experiences to foster communities of joyful and eager learners.... I believe that each student travels on their own unique path to knowledge.

...abroad in the country doing various administrative internships and completing study abroad programs, but my strong math background has instilled in me a great appreciation for mathematics and the natural sciences.

I want to help you achieve your academic goals even as I work towards my own.

Tutors have the responsibility to adapt materials to the learning styles, interests, and personalities...

...in their studies. As a student who once struggled with math yet eventually went on to pursue a graduate degree in Applied Mathematics, I have a deep understanding for the difficulties students face while studying STEM fields.
