I regularly support students in subjects ranging from Algebra and Geometry through Precalculus and Calculus. I also serve as a virtual volunteer math tutor through a nonprofit STEM program that expands access to mathematics education for students in underserved communities.

I am a current math instructor at a local learning center, helping elementary, middle, and high school students strengthen their mathematics skills in both small-group and one-on-one settings. I regularly support students in subjects ranging from Algebra and Geometry through Precalculus and Calculus. I also serve as a virtual volunteer math tutor through a nonprofit STEM program that expands access to mathematics education for students in underserved communities.

I hold a Ph.D. in science with a minor in Applied Statistics and worked as a senior data scientist for seven years. In addition, I have passed all three California Subject Examinations for Teachers (CSET) in Mathematics, which cover the full secondary mathematics curriculum and are the same subject-matter examinations required of credentialed math teachers in California.

My tutoring approach focuses on identifying gaps in understanding and breaking down complex concepts into clear, logical steps that students can grasp and apply independently. I can help students strengthen their classroom performance, build confidence in mathematics, and prepare for ACT, SAT, and AP math exams.

I support middle and high school students in mathematics ranging from Algebra and Geometry through Trigonometry, Precalculus, and Calculus. My experience includes one-on-one tutoring, small-group instruction, classroom support, and university-level STEM teaching as a graduate teaching assistant. I regularly help students work through math questions, strengthen problem-solving skills, and develop a deeper understanding of underlying concepts. I hold a Ph.D. from Cornell University and have passed all three California Subject Examinations for Teachers in Mathematics in 2025 - the same exams required of credentialed math teachers - covering everything from Algebra and Geometry through Calculus.
