I am currently working as an Engineer for a top 50 company in New Jersey. I graduated from Georgia Tech with a 3.85 GPA. I have enjoyed math and science from the time I was a little kid. My parents instilled a love of learning in me which I would like to pass on to the children I teach. I believe learning should be fun and productive. There more fun a child has learning the more they will want to continue.

Since I was in high school, I have been peer tutoring as well as tutoring younger children. I continued to peer tutor through college and worked in a pre-school part-time while I was there. Math has always been my strongest subject; hence the subject I have taught the most. In college, I took courses in Calculus 1,2 and 3; differentail equations; linear algebra and statistics.

My other passion growing up was swimming. I helped teach swimming lessons from the time I was 12 years old at my local pool. As I got older I lifeguarded at the same pool. I became Water Safety Instructor certified and began teaching lessons there. After I graduated from high school, I coached the swim team there. The first year I coached I had about 75 swimmers; the second year I couched I had over 100 swimmers. After moving to the Northeast, I have taught swimming lessons in peoples homes to maintain my certification.

I am also CPR and first aid for the professional rescuer certified.

  I began swimming at the age of four years old. It was the first sport I knew. This shouldn't come as a shock considering my father swam in the 1968 Olympic trials and my mother was the captain of her Swimming and Diving team through college. I loved the sport from the beginning. My dad was the head swim team couch and my mom was the six and under couch. I swam on that team for the next 14 years. At the age of 15, I became a certified lifeguard; I have maintained my certification for the past 11 years. At the age of 17, I became a certified Water Safety Instructor and have maintained that certification for the past 9 years. I have taught swimming lessons from the time I was 17. I teach red cross swimming lessons in both private and group sessions. I was a competative swimmer for over 14 years. When I "retired" at 18, I began couching to stay involved in the sport. I still swim on a regular basis, but not competatively. I can teach all four competative strokes. I have couched at the age group level and the high school level. I have a combined 5 years of couching experience. I can work with a child of any age. I can breakdown the strokes to basics as well as teach experienced swimmers better techniques.
