I am an undergraduate student at Boston University, studying Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, with a minor in Behavioral Disorders Education. I am currently an academic tutor in the Boston Public School system, as well as a Corps Member through Jumpstart; a branch of AmeriCorps focused on kindergarten readiness. I believe literacy from an early age can change the course of every person's future, whether or not it is in an academic setting. In my experience helping struggling students gain confidence in their literacy rate, boosts their self-confidence and desire for knowledge. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be a key for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, running, and teaching my dog new tricks!

When I am not in school or working, my friends and I will play a variety of card games or try cooking a new recipe! I enjoy reading biographies while sipping on a strong matcha latte. I also like shopping downtown, and finding new trails to run on.
