About Me

I have experience tutoring collegiate physics, calculus, and chemistry. I have also taught introductory college chemistry courses (both as a TA and head instructor). I am best suited as a chemistry tutor since I am a chemist by training. However, I also enjoy tutoring physics and math. I try to promote a growth mindset in my tutoring sessions and aim to help students build confidence in math and science. I received a Ph.D. in Physical Chemistry from UC Berkeley and a B.S. in Chemistry and Physics from Haverford College.
