I have a background in education and health sciences, along with experience supporting students and adults with a wide range of learning needs. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with a minor in Education, and I am currently completing my Master of Science in Health Science. I also hold a Single Subject Teaching Credential in Home Economics (previously active) and am a Certified Health and Wellness Coach. My academic and professional background has given me a strong foundation in communication, learning strategies, and adapting material to meet individual needs.

I have experience working in both group and one-on-one settings, including roles as a substitute teacher and as a coach supporting adults with developmental disabilities. In these roles, I have helped individuals build skills in communication, reading comprehension, daily living tasks, and problem-solving. I focus on breaking down information into simple, manageable steps so learners can feel confident and successful.

My approach to tutoring is patient, supportive, and tailored to each student. I aim to create a comfortable, encouraging environment where students feel safe asking questions and building their skills over time. I am particularly comfortable supporting students in English, writing, study skills, and building organization and confidence in learning.

I have a background in Family and Consumer Sciences along with formal training in culinary arts, and I enjoy helping others build confidence in the kitchen.
