I've always found joy in helping others feel seen, capable, and supported, and that's what drew me to education and tutoring. Over the years, I've worked with students in many rolessubstitute teacher, daycare teacher, graduate assistant, and moreand each experience has shown me how powerful one-on-one support can be. I've studied psychology and counseling at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, and that background helps me connect with students not just academically, but emotionally as well.

I tutor a variety of subjects, including reading, writing, elementary math, study skills, and social-emotional learning. Reading and writing are especially close to my heart because I love watching students grow more confident in expressing themselves. My tutoring style is warm, patient, and encouraging. I focus on building trust, meeting students where they are, and celebrating their progressno matter how big or small.

Outside of tutoring, I enjoy being active in my church community, especially working with children. I also love being outdoors, journaling, and learning about how the mind works. I truly believe every student has unique strengths, and it's an honor to help them discover what they're capable of.
