I recently graduated Carnegie Mellon University with a B.S. in Economics and Statistics with University Honors. Since graduation, I have been working as a consultant focusing on analytics - using Economic theory and Statistical methods to advise clients. However, I also want to take my passion for these fields and encourage younger students to use them in their lives. I find that often times students don't succeed in subjects such as math and statistics because they don't understand the practical uses of these subjects; without a fast and rewarding experience, the students get discouraged. I aim to make learning fun and to allow students to examine how the concepts they learn in school can be applied to their daily lives - such as in sports, TV shows, or in the news. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling (I particularly enjoyed my recent trips to Ukraine, France, and Israel) and exploring the various and unique cuisines available all over New York City! I'm also a huge fan of political satire, and I try my best to stay aware of current events all over the world.
