During the day, I work as a civil and environmental engineer. The coalescence of my favorite subjects, physics and environmental studies, led me to engineering in order to improve the world we live in.

As a child I did not plan on becoming an engineer. When I was 16, I fell in love with all things nature during an ecology trip and decided I was going pursue a career in environmental sciences. During my senior year of high school I decided to take AP Physics, and earned enough credit allowing me to skip the requirement once I started my college studies. AP Physics became the catalyst for my future career in engineering.

The first time I took a physics I truly struggled with the material; but in AP Physics I learned how to study, apply knowledge to real world challenges, and that understanding core concepts is the greatest foundation one can have. Having my students attain these crucial skills is what I strive hardest to do as a tutor. My goal is to ensure my students have the knowledge and tools that will allow them to handle their work at hand, as well as, more difficult tasks they may encounter in the future.
