Academics have always been an important part of my life. As a child, I always had my nose stuck in a book, and as a student, not much changed! I took numerous AP courses at Ronald Reagan High School and graduated in the top 3% of my class before attending The University of Texas at Austin.

At UT, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Pre-Medicine Certificate, completing a rigorous curriculum in psychology, biology, chemistry, mathematics, and sciences while earning multiple university honors. During my time there, I also tutored professionally through UT’s Sanger Learning Center, building on the tutoring experience I had already begun years earlier.

Now with 10 years of tutoring experience, I have worked with students across a wide range of ages, academic abilities, and learning styles. My background in psychology has shaped the way I approach those differences. I know that academic success is about more than understanding the material—confidence, motivation, organization, and study habits all play an important role. I take the time to understand how each student learns best and adapt my approach accordingly.

Outside of tutoring, I have worked as an Emergency Medical Technician and in professional leadership and operations roles. These experiences have strengthened my communication, patience, organization, and problem-solving skills, all of which carry over into the way I work with students.

My goal is not just to help students complete an assignment or improve a grade. I want them to better understand the material, develop stronger academic habits, and leave our sessions feeling more capable and confident than when they arrived.
