With 3 years' experience as a software engineer, I specialize in Python, JavaScript, SQL, Django, HTML, CSS, TailwindCSS, Alpine.js, and AI integrations using various APIs (OpenAI, LangChain, AWS Bedrock, and Google Gemini). After completing a coding boot camp through the University of California, Berkeley, I began my software engineering career with Bruce Clay, Inc., in 2023.

I began tutoring in 2004 as a peer tutor for Metropolitan State University, tutoring undergraduate and graduate students in writing and symbolic logic. As a graduate student, I continued tutoring writing for the University of San Diego Writing Center from 2005 to 2006, with an audience spanning undergraduates through faculty. After completing my master's degree in Leadership Studies, I worked as a talent development professional for 13 years and earned a Certified Professional in Talent Development certification through the Association for Talent Development. I am an expert in training facilitation, instructional design, and virtual online training.

My established methodology begins with identifying the student's goals and learning needs. Tutoring is a unique medium focused on meeting students where they are and supporting their individual improvement. I rely heavily on the Socratic method of asking questions to draw out students' existing knowledge and make them active participants throughout the tutorial. When presenting information, I use a mix of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modalities, as appropriate to the subject matter.
