I hold a Master’s degree in Bioengineering from the University of Denver, where I was awarded Graduate Research Scholarships for academic excellence and published five research papers (four as first author), earning the Best Paper Award. My work also led to an invention, reflecting my innovative approach to problem-solving. I was later awarded a National Interest Waiver (NIW) for my impactful research.
Building on this, I earned a second Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts from Columbia University, supported by the prestigious Dean’s Scholarship. My first Bachelor’s degree in Biological Science, combined with my engineering background, equips me with a multidisciplinary perspective in both physical and social sciences.
In my teaching career, including as a Math and Science Teacher for Columbia University’s TASC Program, I have developed strategies to make complex topics accessible. My approach focuses on breaking down problems into smaller sections, using real-life examples to enhance understanding for my students. I emphasize step-by-step learning to build strong foundational skills, fostering confidence and mastery in my students. I also believe mathematics and science are best learned through practice and repetition, and I tailor lessons to each student’s learning style. My patience and adaptability create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable asking questions.
With over a decade of academic and professional experience and numerous achievements, I am dedicated to helping students achieve their academic goals. My classroom and private teaching combines expertise, innovation, and real-world application to ensure students gain both knowledge and confidence.
