I love to teach just as much as I love to learn. I truly believe where there's a will, there's a way, and hopefully an "A"! If you really want to understand the "why" and not just the "what will be on the test," then I'm your gal. Apart from academia,...

...because I enjoy it. Education has opened up so many doors for me, and this is largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click" in a student's mind.

...recent medical school graduate currently taking a research year. I used to tutor with Varsity Tutors before matriculating into medical school, and coming back to assist my fellow medical professionals with USMLE tutoring feels like somewhat of a homecoming.

...a way to further medical research while remaining involved in patient care. I work with an expert on schizophrenia to map the epigenetics involved in schizophrenia onset.

I enjoy being able to improve the lives of people, and I like medical research because it enables me to help more people. I like what my life...
