I hold a Doctor of Education (EdD) in Health Professions with a concentration in Orthopedic Rehabilitation, a Master of Science in Kinesiology with a concentration in Geriatric Exercise Science and Strength Training, and a bachelor's and associate degrees in Exercise Science. My education provides a foundation in biology, health sciences, research, academic writing, and scholarly communication. I have experience with APA 7 formatting, literature reviews, and graduate-level coursework, along with Quality Matters certification and training in instructional design and educational technology.

My teaching experience spans more than seven years across K–12 schools, higher education, and professional education. In the K–12 school system, I taught first, fourth, and fifth grades, as well as high school biology for students in grades 9–10. I also served as an adjunct college instructor teaching undergraduate students and have provided one-on-one academic support to K–12 and graduate students. As a federal Instructional Systems Specialist, I designed curricula and instructional materials, assessed learning outcomes, and developed educational experiences for diverse learners in the U.S. Army Aviation Section.

I use differentiated instruction, active learning, and formative assessment to identify each student's strengths and areas for growth. I adapt explanations, practice activities, and learning strategies to the student's grade level, background, and goals. I can support students with biology, essay development, academic writing, research papers, APA formatting, and study skills, including undergraduate and graduate-level work. My goal is to build subject knowledge, confidence, and independent learning skills through structured, supportive instruction.
