I am a senior at the University of Florida pursuing a dual degree in Computer Science and Economics, where I have maintained a 3.64 GPA while completing rigorous coursework in databases, data structures, software engineering, and advanced mathematics. My strong academic foundation includes earning a 5 on both the AP Calculus AB and BC exams during high school, followed by an A in Calculus 3 at the university level, demonstrating my deep understanding of mathematical concepts from foundational algebra through multivariable calculus. Additionally, I scored a 1540 on the SAT, placing me in the 99th percentile, which has given me valuable insight into effective test-taking strategies and the specific skills needed to excel on standardized assessments. My computer science background spans multiple programming languages including Python, C++, Java, and JavaScript, along with practical experience in data science, machine learning, and software development through academic projects. This summer, I will be working as a technology intern at PGIM, where I will apply my technical skills in a professional financial services environment.
My approach to helping others learn focuses on building genuine understanding rather than memorization, guiding students to develop problem-solving frameworks they can apply independently. Throughout my academic career, I have consistently helped classmates grasp difficult concepts by breaking down complex topics into manageable steps and explaining material in multiple ways until it clicks. For SAT preparation, I understand both the content mastery and strategic test-taking techniques required to achieve top scores, including time management, pattern recognition, and avoiding common pitfalls that trap even well-prepared students. In mathematics and computer science, I believe in teaching from fundamental principles to advanced applications, ensuring students grasp the underlying logic that connects concepts across disciplines.
