I grew up in the DC-NOVA area and I am a recent graduate of the College of Charleston in South Carolina. There I pursued a double major in economics and philosophy, as well as a minor in environmental studies. As a student-tutor I enjoyed helping student grapple with difficult concepts and enjoyed watching them succeed. While I have a broad interest in economics and statistics, I particularly enjoy macro-economics and monetary theory. I hope to one day teach at the university level. In addition, I enjoy reading literature, running, biking, and cooking in my spare time.
