I am currently working as an Environmental Educator through SCA at Watkins Glen State Park in NYS. I graduated from Eastern University with honors, earning my Bachelor of Science in Biology with a minor in Environmental Science and a focus in animal conservation. Since I graduated I have worked in the Adirondacks in NYS working with injured animals, at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary in PA studying the migration of birds of prey, and for Conservation Corps in Iowa studying the migration of the Northern Long Eared bat. It is immensely satisfying for me as a tutor when I am able to help a student connect all of their basic knowledge of science to understand more complex branches. I strongly believe that in order for a student to do well in a subject, they have to connect with it on a personal level. It therefore is my philosophy to help students to see how their studies can be integrated to solve much bigger questions. I am a very energetic person and am excited about helping students of all levels reach their fullest potential. In my spare time, I enjoy things that keep me active like hiking, soccer, and volleyball, as well as things like reading and art projects that help me relax.
