I graduated with honors from the Missouri University of Science and Technology with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and a minor in mathematics. I am very passionate about tutoring students because seeing how a tutor can directly impact and help a student is truly rewarding. I tutor in all subjects, however, mathematics, science, and engineering courses are my personal favorite. My teaching philosophy is to motivate the student to want to learn instead of viewing learning and studying as a burden or task. Outside of academia, I enjoy hiking, reading, fishing, and spending time with friends and family.
