...I mentored and coached two analysts. I was most drawn to the teaching side of these experiences and find that the skills translate well to tutoring when complemented with my passion for history, English, writing, philosophy, and persuasive argumentation.

During my free time, I enjoy traveling, calisthenics, soccer, guitar...
