About Me

My interest in education is firmly grounded in the belief that everyone deserves the opportunity to engage with academia in the way that best suits them. After graduating with degrees in English literature and public policy, I worked as a classroom teacher in Louisiana. I taught high school math, specifically pre-algebra, algebra I, geometry, and ACT prep and am certified to teach all secondary math. I also wrote curriculum based on the Common Core standards in geometry. As a teacher, I was committed to getting to know my students’ unique interests and academic needs in order to best assess how they interacted with material. Rather than explain a problem the same way to every student, for instance, I looked for multiple approaches and helped my students understand which made the most sense for them. I also considered their personal background and interests to ensure that they would have the most positive learning experience possible, regardless of how they felt about the content we covered. In addition to my teaching experience, I have personal success on multiple standardized tests. I achieved exceptional scores on the SAT and GMAT and have extensive experience teaching ACT material. I have a genuine love of learning and a passion for sharing this with students. In my spare time, I enjoy running, visiting local coffee shops, and exploring Brooklyn.
