I am a passionate tutor and college admissions advisor with 10+ years of experience! I graduated with an Honors Degree in Neurobiology and Secondary in Astrophysics from Harvard University. I also hold an M.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Colorado, Boulder.

My main areas of expertise are SAT Prep and College Applications Advising. Although I have been a tutor and college admissions advisor with agencies in the past, I am very excited to branch out on my own and begin my solo practice! I thoroughly enjoy my opportunities to help students develop their learning skills and academic proficiency. My background includes experience in various disciplines and age levels. I had the great pleasure of tutoring students in group homes with course recovery as well as helping high-achieving students with their college level coursework and SAT Prep. While pursuing my M.S. degree, I also began helping students secure internships and prepare their college admissions applications. Personally, I was granted admission into Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Vanderbilt, Rice University, and the University of Virginia.

My philosophy as an educator and advisor is to provide my students with a warm and welcoming environment that encourages them to be the best they can be! From elementary school subjects to college admissions, I look forward to helping each student on their individual journey.
