About Me

As an instructor, my main objective is to help my students maintain a good work-life balance while also building up their confidence regarding their own skills. I also know a lot about work-life balance as a student, since I played competitive chess at the national level for 13 years, did competition math (such as the Kangaroo Math Competition and the Math Olympiad) for 12 years, gymnastics and ski team for just shy of 10 years, and began running my own tutoring business at age 11! I also love being able to connect with students over subject material they've previously found to be difficult. I have five degrees from the University of New Mexico - bachelor's degrees in marketing and film and digital media, and associate's degrees in Math Education, Media Marketing and Graphic Design. I am also in the process of going back to college to pursue a degree in Neuropathology, because I find the human brain absolutely fascinating. I've worn several hats for work despite only being 25 - I've worked on professional film sets, had a handful of customer service jobs across food and retail, been a TA for 6 college-level courses, taught classroom 10th grade geometry right after graduating college, and I'm currently a professional animator outside of tutoring. Incorporating both a creative and analytical mindset is absolutely integral to my teaching - I like to structure individual curriculums for each student, no matter what subject I am teaching, because every student has a different learning style and deserves a custom roadmap to their own personal success.
