I am studying Neurobiology at the University of California, San Diego, where I maintain a 4.0 GPA and actively conduct research in neuroscience. My academic focus and lab experience have given me a deep understanding of chemistry, biology, and mathematics, which are subjects I’m passionate about helping students master. Currently, I’m conducting research at the Salk Institute and previously worked at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine’s Neuroscience Institute, where I supported studies on Alzheimer’s disease. I’m also a co-author on an Alzheimers publication, reflecting my commitment to clear communication and analytical rigor.
My tutoring approach focuses on understanding over memorization. I help students break down complex material into patterns and connections that make sense, especially in chemistry, biology, and mathematics. I believe anyone can learn difficult subjects if they are guided to see why concepts work rather than just how to apply them. Whether it’s mastering chemical reactions, understanding biological systems, or learning calculus, I focus on building intuition and confidence step by step.
Beyond tutoring, I serve as Vice President of Brain Hub at UCSD, a student organization dedicated to advancing neuroscience education and professional development. I also volunteer with Youth Empowerment in Science, where I lead interactive STEM workshops in elementary schools. These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate complex ideas clearly to students of all ages and backgrounds. My goal as a tutor is to make science accessible, engaging, and personally rewarding for every student I work with.
