I want to help students succeed. It is my goal to help them be the best they can, everyone has a different path in life, and I want to help students find the path that best suits them. We all learn differently and helping them figure out what works for them so they can take that with them in life and advocate for their needs is a skill all students need.

...theoretical computer science, as well as number theory (largely the study of prime numbers). I've taught courses ranging from basic arithmetic up through linear algebra and multivariable calculus. The second most exciting thing about mathematics is that moment when something totally opaque and confusing suddenly solidifies into crystal clarity. It's the sort of moment that makes you shout "aha!" or "eureka!". The most exciting thing about mathematics is sharing that experience with someone else.... All too...

Outside of tutoring, I enjoy hiking, hearing live music, scoring great finds at thrift stores, and playing guitar. I love to share...
