I am passionate about biomedical engineering, and am endlessly amazed by intricacies of the world around us. My degrees are in engineering (BS-General Engineering from Harvey Mudd, MS- Mechanical Engineering, and PhD-Bioengineering from Georgia Tech), but I also love art and literature and linguistics. Outside of academics, I am an avid sports fan (and rugby player) and I love to cook, hike with my dog, and travel.

I am currently doing research on personalized therapies for glioblastoma brain tumors at the Duke Medical Center, before I continue on to medical school. I love to swim, walk my pug dog, and hang out with family and friends in my free time. I hope I can help you in your studies. I look forward to working with you!

I am currently a student at Duke University studying Biomedical Engineering and Economics. Just a little bit about me and some of my interests. Some of my favorite academic interests include memoirs and modern classics. I think Catcher in the Rye is still one of my all time favorite books but Percy Jackson, a modern classic, is up there too. Beyond academics, I take great guilty pleasure in watching TV shows such as Westworld, Sherlock, How I Met Your Mother, and even The Bachelorette when I'm a...More

I am earning dual Bachelors of Science from Duke University and Duke Kunshan University (located in Kunshan, Jiangsu, China) in Behavioral Science-- intended to graduate in 2023. As a former Varsity Tutors student myself, I can confidently say that our services not only allow students to be proud of what they can achieve (for myself it was an SAT score and college admissions essays) but also who they are. Tutoring had a huge impact on my confidence in the classroom and other academic settings (i...More

I am a graduate of Dartmouth College where I majored in History. I also received my M.Ed. from Boston College so that I could become a middle school and high school social studies teacher. Currently, I am working concurrently on my JD (at Duke University) and my Ph.D. in Education (at Boston College) and hope to one day combine the two degrees by working in policy. I have tutored or been in the education field my entire life and love it when I am able to help a scholar learn something new. I lov...More

I'm currently a post-doctoral associate at Duke University. My research aims to understand how specialized cells in the brain contribute to synapse formation and function. I previously was a PhD student at Washington University in St. Louis where I used a genomics approach to understand how cells in the brain rapidly communicate at the synapse. I am originally from NJ and received my Bachelor's degree from Rutgers University. I have taught a series of courses for undergraduate students (Neurophy...More

I am a current student at Duke University School of Medicine pursuing my MHS degree in Physician Assistant studies. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Respiratory Care with which I practiced as a Respiratory Therapist with focus in Adult critical Care. I have several certifications and I am a certified clinical simulations instructor. While I tutor a broad range of courses, I am passionate about Algebra, biology, anatomy & physiology, Medical terminology, medicine, ACLS, BLS,NRP, Respir...More

I am a Graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University as a student of English, Creative Writing, and Teaching. My educational background specializes in Secondary English Education, but I am practiced at creating content and concepts for lessons suitable to 3rd and 4th grade students, as well.

I am a graduate of The University of Notre Dame. I received a Master of Theological Studies degree with a focus on Systematic and Historical Theology. I also have Bachelor of Arts degrees in History and Political Science from North Carolina State University. While I can tutor a range of subjects, I am most interested in helping students with graduate level test prep. I have recently studied for and taken the GRE, so I am well-positioned and passionate about helping students succeed with testing ...More

I am obsessed, is sharing them with others. That's an overly elaborate way of suggesting that I love teaching. I have always seized opportunities to teach from the time I was an undergraduate tutor in the Writing Center. My first true teaching position came when I was a graduate student at the University of Georgia: there I tutored and taught philosophy, writing, Latin, and ancient Greek. I then taught Latin in high school for several years before joining the Army. After I completed my term of s...More
