About Me

I am currently a graduate student at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. I am getting a Ph.D in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Previously, I received a bachelors degree from the University of Florida with a major in Biology and a minor in Entomology. Also in 2009, I completed the International Baccalaureate program so I am familiar and experience with the requirements (I went to an IB middle and high school). Throughout my career I have had much success with mentoring students. In the past 2 years I have personally mentored 4 students in how to be a effective research scientists (I taught things like proper lab techniques, basic biology/biochemistry, presentation skills, and how to apply science to the real world). All of my students have received awards for their outstanding performance. I love tutoring anything science related, especially biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, and more, but I am also strong in math. My tutoring philosophy is that no two students are alike so I like to mold my teaching style to match the student as best as I can.
