I studied Applied Mathematics at the University of Georgia. I have tutored students at the college level in calculus and differential equations. I'm a commissioned officer in the Army National Guard, and this role has taught me what an effect leaders and mentors can have on another's individual success. I'm an athlete and I have learned the difficulty in trying to balance being an excellent student and excelling in my sport. These things give me the knowledge to understand what a challenge learning can be and also how to foster an environment for it. I've always loved math and science and I hope to always be able to share the beauty of it with others. For those who struggle with it, I hope to create an ease of understanding for them so they can learn to appreciate all that math and science has to offer.
