I graduated from Loyola University of Chicago, where I majored in biology. Since childhood, biology has always intrigued me, and this passion led me to pursue it further in my academic journey. Now, I am in my third year of medical school, continuing my path toward a career in medicine. Over the years, I have worked, tutored, and pursued my ambition in the medical field, with a strong focus on helping others understand complex scientific concepts.

Outside of academics, I enjoy playing the guitar, traveling, drawing, writing, and watching soccer. These activities help me unwind and keep a balanced lifestyle.

My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that learning should be enjoyable and engaging. I encourage students to view learning not as a task to be completed, but as a process to be appreciated. I've found that enjoying the journey, working diligently, and genuinely understanding the materialrather than forcing itmakes learning more meaningful and effective. When teaching, I focus on building strong rapport with students and revisiting foundational concepts when needed to ensure comprehension. I have volunteered as a tutor and worked as a teaching assistant, always going the extra mile to help my peers achieve higher success.

I am passionate about new challenges and the process of learning, and I constantly remind myself why I started on this journey and where I'm headed. The reason I joined Varsity Tutors is that, through my experience volunteering as a tutor and working with younger students, I learned that teaching is a responsibility. Education is one of the most valuable assets a person can have, and I make it a priority to connect with students on a personal level, offering not just academic support but also emotional encouragement. As a listener and a mentor, I provide constructive feedback and ensure that my students feel supported. These qualities will enable me to bring my best to this job and continue to inspire others as I have in the past.
