I am an experienced educator with a strong background in computer science and instructional design. I have taught programming, web development, and technology courses to high school students with a wide range of prior experiences, from those just learning file management to those already familiar with programming. My goal as a tutor is always to meet students where they are, helping them build confidence step by step while pushing them to challenge themselves.

I hold a B.S. in Computer Science, an MBA, and I am completing my Doctor of Education in Curriculum & Instruction with a focus on Instructional Design and Technology. Beyond the classroom, I've worked as a small business consultant, a web developer, and a trainer, so I bring real-world experience that connects academic concepts to practical applications.

I believe learning works best when it's personalized and engaging. My approach combines patience, encouragement, and clear explanations that adapt to each learner's needs. Whether I'm introducing a beginner to the basics of coding or helping an advanced student refine their skills, I focus on building understanding, problem-solving skills, and confidence that lasts long after the tutoring session.

Hobbies

Outside of teaching, I enjoy cooking and gardening — both give me a chance to be creative and hands-on. I also love traveling and exploring new places. Over the past few years, I’ve had a lot of fun learning about robotics and 3D printing, and I’m always looking for new projects to build or experiment with. Recently, my family added a puppy to our home, so helping my 8-year-old learn to train her (and sometimes learning right alongside her) has become a new hobby. Exploring new technologies and experiences, whether in education or everyday life, is something I truly enjoy.
