I am a proud graduate of The University of Texas at Austin with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Sciences, focused on statistics and data analysis, and a minor in Science, Technology, and Society. I later earned my Master's in Applied Digital Learning from Lamar University. My journey began as a spaceflight training instructor for the International Space Station through a NASA contractor role. That experience opened my eyes to the joy of teaching and helping others grow through knowledge. When I realized instruction was the part I loved most, I decided to pursue it full-time. Since then, I've spent over 16 years working with middle, high, and college students. From leading hands-on STEM programs to mentoring future leaders through national initiatives, I've built a career rooted in equity, innovation, and student success. I specialize in working with all learners, including ESL/ELL and students with special needs, and I take pride in adapting my approach to make learning accessible, engaging, and personal. While I'm passionate about Mathematics, it is STEM engagement, inspiration, education, and intentional educational technology use that fuels me most these days. I've helped learners achieve strong outcomes on standardized tests and develop long-term confidence in their abilities. I believe education can transform lives and that a strong foundation in math opens doors far beyond the classroom. At home, I'm a mother of three, and we enjoy visiting the library, solving puzzles, singing, dancing, and learning together. When I find quiet time, I'm usually diving into new technology, solving math challenges, or enjoying a well-earned laugh with a good comedy. Teaching is not just what I do; it is who I am.

More than twenty years ago, the year I was born, my father underwent a coronary artery bypass graft procedure and almost died due to unforeseen complications. My mother would tell me how lucky I was to have even met him. He has a twenty-five year history of poorly controlled diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia and throughout my childhood I witnessed firsthand the suffering that these comorbidities caused himand in effect, our family. I accompanied my father numerous times to the emergency department and doctor appointments then, and continue to do so. I called 911 and then rode along with him in ambulances as he complained of severe chest pain and dyspnea. Witnessing my dad being brought out on stretchers countless times made me feel helpless but motivated to investigate the intricacies of his diseases. In medical school, my curiosity for understanding these disease processes only grew as I learned about the complex interplay between comorbid pathologies. As an internal medicine resident, I will further dedicate my career to the physiology, treatment and management of patients suffering from these distressing, and often overlooked illnesses.During my internal medicine core and sub-internship, we dealt with patients with multiple comorbidities and non-communicable, chronic disease. For example, there was a fifty five year old African American man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension and, chronic renal failure on hemodialysis who presented with shortness of breath and bilateral leg edema. I noticed the patient guarding the upper right side of his abdomen; I performed a complete physical exam on him, but focused on that. He had upper right quadrant tenderness on palpation, which I reported to my attending. I suggested that it could be congestive hepatopathy due to right-sided heart failure along with his bilateral leg edema, and that we should order an echocardiogram to evaluate his heart further. This showed that his ejection fraction had reduced significantly from his prior records to less than 35%. From speaking to the patient further, I gathered he had been skipping his furosemide dose because of increased urination, which he had not admitted to until now. As a team, we formulated a plan that involved patient education, optimizing his medication, and the placement of an AICD. I felt a sense of gratification, knowing my thorough physical exam, detailed history and, education on AICD usage helped improve this patient's management and quality of life. Experiencing how the interactions between these disease processes manifested in this patient ensures that me that there will always be more to learn. I experienced also, how important interactions with specialists such as endocrine, cardiology, pulmonology and nephology were, as they added depth to management to the patient. For me, he was a patient who typified my experience in internal medicine.In addition, I find internal medicine to be a very emotionally rewarding field, because of the moments of comfort a physician can provide, in critical moments. I recall, for example the hospital course of a sixty-year-old Caucasian female patient with cervical cancer and metastasis to the brain. She was refusing to eat and had no family to support her during this time. The attending, residents and nurses all had tried to convince her to eat but had little success. I imagined myself in her shoes and started to empathize some of the feelings she must have been experiencing. I sat by her bed, just to keep her company. After two hours, she eventually opened up to me and confessed that she was scared she was going to die and had given up on life. I began to spoon feed her banana pudding and I still remember her smile to this very day. Though I will have different availabilities with regard to time, as a resident, I know that I will strive to create the emotional space for such connections with patients in residency and afterwards.With the knowledge and experience I gain from your residency program, one day I hope to become a hospitalist and then pursue a fellowship in cardiology or endocrinology, so I may provide this specialized care that patients in urban areas so desperately need. I plan to take an active role in research during residency, specifically in cardiovascular health, and find a program that supports such endeavors with state of the art facilities. I also am interested in program with protected didactic time so that I may continue to advance my knowledge and develop my clinical skills in a structured manner. Having rotated at an urban hospital New York, I look forward to working in a similarly culturally diverse environment to provide the finest patient centered care, and learn the most from cases, while also serving an underserved, and marginalized population. It is with this vision I hope to be a great addition to your residency program and be given an opportunity to manage complicated patients, where once I was merely watching diseases progress in my father.

I am a graduate student at the University of Texas at Austin pursuing a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering. I graduated magna cum laude with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of New Mexico with a concentration in materials processing and minors in Physics and Mathematics. I started my tutoring career as a supplemental instruction leader at the Santa Fe Community College where I taught students in a Pre-Calculus/Trigonometry course how to study effectively and develop test-taking strategies. Once that appointment ended I was hired as a tutor in subjects ranging from basic math to ordinary differential equations. I also tutored in the following subjects: chemistry, physics, engineering (including AutoCAD), and computer programing. I have put to use my academic knowledge in several internship opportunities allowing me to apply the things I have learned in a real-world setting. I worked at the Los Alamos National Laboratory for 2.5 years studying water purification while pursuing my B.S. I was an Air Force Research Lab Fellow at Kirkland Air Force Base where I studied solid Oxide Fuel Cells for space vehicles. I was also funded by NSF to study bio-compatible smart materials in the Biomedical Engineering department at the University of New Mexico. All of these experiences have helped me hone the skills I learned in the classroom and have given me a wider perspective on science, math, and engineering. I am a published author in three different scientific journals. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and passion with students because I believe it is important to understand how the things they are learning are important in the real world.

I firmly believe in the importance of education as a foundation for the future. That being said, the way public education is handled often leaves many of those it intends to help in situations where they are struggling and cannot quite find the help they need from their teachers.Hopefully, that's where I can be of assistance. Everyone in this country deserves a quality education and when the public education system doesn't quite get the job done, tutoring is a great way to fill in the blanks or break things down and really help make complete sense of a concept or question.I will do my best to help each individual client and make sure I provide them with the tutoring style that best fits their way of learning.

I am currently in the final year of my PhD program at The University of Texas at Austin, where I also completed my undergraduate education. During the last decade, I developed expertise in a wide variety of subjects in the humanities and social sciences because of my interdisciplinary approach to my studies. As an undergraduate, I triple majored in Government, History, and the self-created major of African Development Studies through the Humanities Honors Thesis Program in the College of Liberal Arts, where I was also a member of Plan 1 Honors (the humanities equivalent of the more well-known Plan 2 program). I also obtained minors in Philosophy and African & African Diaspora Studies, as well as a certifications in Human Rights & Social Justice and European Studies. In May 2013, I graduated a Dean's Distinguished Graduate (one of twelve graduating students selected annually for the College of Liberal Arts' highest honor). By August of the same year, I enrolled in my current program to pursue a degree in African History, with a minor in Global History. I will defend my dissertation on the history of sexual health and HIV/AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa at the end of this calendar year.I always try to emphasize investing in the education of others as my personal form of gratitude for the many opportunities that propelled my own learning. Mentoring my best friend to the point that I felt his own graduate accomplishments surpassed my own has been one of the most rewarding moments of my life thus far. I possess a profound passion for guiding others to that "lightbulb moment", and I have a long history of experience doing so. My qualifications include: coaching debate and public speaking for over five years, both privately and at Westlake High School in Texas; teaching thousands of undergraduate history students at the University of Texas over the course of five years; mentoring several undergraduate thesis students; designing course curriculum and teaching aids; functioning as an Undergraduate Writing Mentor for a large freshman writing course; and providing - in various official capacities - constructive feedback on many of my colleagues' research and writing efforts.Higher level education in historical topics is almost entirely done through copious amounts of reading and almost all courses conclude with term papers amounting to close to fifty pages in length. The comprehensive exam portfolio that marked my transition from PhD Student to PhD Candidate alone consisted of over four hundred pages of quality written work. My dissertation, once finished, will be similar. Additionally, I have edited and proofread several published academic books. Finally, I am the author of over thirty pieces of written work, including chapters and articles printed by various respected academic publishers. I presented much of this research at conferences all over the world, including a paper which earned the award for the best written work from the University of Alabama in 2014.I possess over a decade of learned expertise in history, and much of my published research is held in high regard by my peers and mentors alike. My undergraduate honors thesis approached history from the direction of political science and political economy, while my current efforts examine the social and political impact of trends in global history and the history of medicine in sub-Saharan Africa. While Africa is my regional specialty, I have also taught classes in both 20th century Texan history and the history of the modern U.S. In 2015, I even taught a seminar on the global history of disease to a collection of AP World History teachers seeking to build curriculum around this topic. Historical education requires a particular style of style of writing which emphasizes the construction of effective arguments and the use of evidence to tie ideas together in a way that is distinct from the type of writing encouraged in other fields. Articulating concepts utilizing this style is by far my most refined skill.I am certainly open to discussing tutoring options further. Because I value quality education, I want to make sure that I am an appropriate fit for any student interested in working with me. This said, the lengthy amount of time I have spent with The University of Texas at Austin has granted me qualifications to educate in topics well outside of the narrow focus of my dissertation research. I have explored topics in the fields of social work, business ethics, philosophy, law, the history of science, and many more. I encourage any inquiries seeking clarification about whether I am able to provide mentorship in any particular field of study.

I love explaining the shades of meaning in words, strengthening students' reading comprehension, and building their writing skills. I believe patience and kindness are key to student success. As a graduate student in a field called Learning Technologies, I am constantly discovering which educational approaches best help students.I am a great tutor because I believe in finding out why students have certain road blocks to learning and crafting an approach that helps them overcome those obstacles. I am patient and I understand the importance of explaining a concept without assuming prior knowledge or making the learner feel patronized.In my free time I enjoy yoga, running, playing with dogs, and checking out design blogs.

10+ Years Tutoring

I'm a recent graduate from the University of Texas who has moved back to his hometown in Houston while I prepare to attend medical school in 2013. I had much experience tutoring at UT, as I was hired by the University from 2010 to 2012 to tutor undergraduates in Math, Chemistry, and Physics. Aside from that, I have worked part time tutoring middle school students in geography and English and have volunteered to tutor elementary school kids as well.In my free time I like to read books, across a broad spectrum of topics, visit with friends and family, and be outside. While living in Austin I had picked up the hobbies of volunteering on the weekends and going to the gym to work out, but I have yet to translate those good habits to life in Houston!

I have been both a tutor and teaching assistant for the department of accounting, helping many students better understand complex topics and prepare for exams. I am a firm believer in understanding over memorization. Whether its accounting, mathematics, or writing I believe it is effective to consider the "why" instead of skipping to the answer.

I am certified to teach high school science, all areas, in Texas. Since graduating, I have worked internationally, in Hong Kong and El Salvador as a curriculum developer and classroom teacher.

Outside of academic and education, I am a fan of performing music, traveling, and cooking.Teaching and tutoring are forms of helping others to get to where they need or want to be. Some things are difficult to learn on one's own, or they are difficult with one version of learning those things. I hope to help others by providing a different or clear way of thinking about what gives them trouble.
