I earned my Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and completed a four-year postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard University before beginning my career as a university physics professor. Over the past 26 years, I have taught a broad range of undergraduate and graduate physics courses while mentoring more than 170 students in research at CERN through six National Science Foundation (NSF) grants. I am passionate about helping students succeed through engaging instruction, individualized mentorship, and meaningful research experiences.
As a tutor, I combine deep subject expertise with a collaborative, student-centered approach. I provide high-quality instruction in physics at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, including mechanics, electricity and magnetism, modern physics, particle physics, high-energy physics, classical mechanics, and quantum mechanics. Whether you are preparing for an exam, tackling challenging homework, or striving for a deeper conceptual understanding, I focus on making complex ideas clear, intuitive, and accessible.
Every student learns differently, so I tailor each session to your background, goals, and learning style. My objective is not only to help you solve today's problems but also to strengthen your analytical thinking, build lasting confidence, and develop the problem-solving skills needed for long-term success in physics.
