With over 15 years of experience in education and coaching, I specialize in helping high school students build the confidence, skills, and direction they need to thrive in school and beyond. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Florida International University and a master’s degree from the University of Miami. I’m certified by the Florida Department of Education in Social Sciences (Grades 6–12) and hold an endorsement in Gifted Education. My work has focused on supporting diverse learners in both traditional classroom settings and one-on-one environments, including gifted students, students with ADHD, and those navigating social-emotional challenges.
I am a certified practitioner of both the Highlands Ability Battery® and Strong Interest Inventory®, two powerful tools that allow me to guide students in discovering their natural strengths and ideal career paths. I specialize in career coaching, college planning, and life skills development for teens. My tutoring style is dynamic and student-centered. I use experiential methods like goal-setting workshops, resume building, and mock interviews to foster real-world readiness. For financial literacy, I teach teens essential topics such as budgeting, saving, and understanding credit through interactive simulations and activities that make abstract concepts real and practical.
Having faced my own challenges as a teen, including bullying, I bring empathy and connection to my work. My goal is not just academic improvement but personal growth. I design customized, enriching learning experiences that go beyond memorization—focusing instead on creative problem-solving, self-awareness, and practical application. Whether helping a student prepare for college, explore career options, or gain life skills, I meet them where they are and empower them to move forward with clarity and confidence.
