About Me

I studied Math and Finance at Boston College and graduated in 2015. In some capacity, I've been helping students of varying abilities and ages in subjects ranging from reading to business to Math for the past 7 years! Nothing is more satisfying than seeing the pieces fall into place for a student who has previously been struggling with a topic. I firmly believe that learning can be interesting when placed into context. To get to know I'll tell you a little more about myself. Since graduating I've begun working at a software company in NYC. In my free time, I love reading, cooking, and playing music. I've recently begun taking up the guitar. Additionally, I'm always outdoors. I'm looking forward to the upcoming ski season and I just ran my first marathon.

Q&A with Michael

I believe learning can only occur when students understand the fundamental concepts behind what they're learning and can appreciate why what they're learning about is important. This is why I do my utmost to place concepts in context. I tell the history of mathematical discoveries and why they revolutionized the world, I connect business concepts to current events to show their relevance, and I extrapolate from basic concepts in all subjects to show how what we're learning about now can lead to incredibly powerful tools that have helped shaped the world we live in.
