With experience teaching math from elementary to college level and professional training in full-stack development, I help students build confidence alongside competence in both math and programming. At Mathnasium, I worked with groups of 4-6 students at different levels, learning to adapt quickly to different learning styles. I bring that same flexibility to teaching HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, and other programming languages. I don't just give answersI guide students to discover solutions themselves because that's what sticks. Whether it's explaining why a for-loop isn't working, walking through derivatives, preparing for the SAT, or building a first web page, I focus on understanding over memorization. I'm patient but direct, and I adjust my approach based on what's actually working for each student. My goal is simple: make learning feel achievable, not intimidating, and give students tools they can use long after our sessions end.

I enjoy hiking around the Pacific Northwest, gaming in my downtime, and reading across various genres. I'm naturally curious and love learning new things, which often leads me to personal coding projects or exploring new technologies just for fun.
