About Me

Hello there! Across clinical training, research, and teaching, I've learned that confidence grows when students feel understood, not rushed. My tutoring style is structured, supportive, and practical. I like to start by identifying what's actually getting in the way (content gaps, test strategy, organization, or anxiety), then build a clear plan with small, doable steps and lots of practice. I aim for sessions that feel calm, focused, and encouraging, with measurable progress each time. Whether you're strengthening fundamentals, preparing for an exam, or building study habits that finally stick, I'll meet you where you are and help you move forward!

Hobbies & Interests

Outside of tutoring, I love solving puzzles, playing trivia, and spending time with friends. I’m always experimenting with new baking projects and enjoy discovering new music across different genres. I like bringing that same curiosity and creativity into my sessions!
