I have been helping students learn science and math for my whole career. In fact, one of the reasons I earned my Ph.D. in chemistry was so that I could become a college teacher! I have experience working with students of all ages and experience, from elementary school math to graduate level chemistry, from community college to university, from pre-med to liberal arts student, and I particularly love helping students who are struggling to see the reason they need to know 'this stuff'! I am energetic, student centered (meaning I will ask you questions to understand where the trouble point is) and I like to come up with ways to help you see the patterns so that you will be able to solve problems you've never seen before as well as the ones in your homework. In my spare time I love to paint, write and read. I am an artist inside and a scientist outside! Truth is I love to see the beautiful parts of science in everything around us. If you like outgoing, energetic, excited teachers and tutors we will get along great!

In my spare time I like to write short stories, paint (watercolor and acrylic) and read. I love scary movies and I have a cute little dog who follows me everywhere. I love to be outdoors in every season, but I particularly like both beach walks and snowshoe walks. I like to visit new places and love learning to do new things even if I am not very good at them!
