I am a graduate of the University of Georgia, where I received my B.S. in Physics. My research focus as an undergraduate was originally in nano-engineered solar cells, but later moved towards computer simulations. During my last year at UGA I tutored Introductory Physics students, and I found the experience very rewarding. I currently tutor for all levels of Physics as well as Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus, and Quantitative SAT Prep. I enjoy teaching students how to visualize problems and how to develop their own general approach all types of word problems. I believe that the mindset developed through a better understanding of math and science can give someone an interesting, unique appreciation for how the world works, which I find very inspiring. Outside of tutoring I enjoy playing with my dog, backpacking, weight lifting, and cooking.
