Bio

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Microbiology and a Bachelor’s degree in Public Health, along with a Master’s in Public Health focused on epidemiology. Through my coursework, I built a strong foundation in biology, human health, and understanding how to break down complex information. I’m most familiar with tutoring high school and early college students in biology, including AP Biology and general health science topics.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Microbiology and a Bachelor’s degree in Public Health, along with a Master’s in Public Health focused on epidemiology. Through my coursework, I built a strong foundation in biology, human health, and understanding how to break down complex information. I’m most familiar with tutoring high school and early college students in biology, including AP Biology and general health science topics. I focus on helping students actually understand the “why” behind concepts instead of just memorizing information.

I also have experience working directly with students in an academic setting. In college, I worked as a Supplemental Instruction (SI) Leader, where I led group study sessions for undergraduate students. I helped them review material, prepare for exams, and figure out study strategies that worked for them. This was usually in small group settings, but I also worked one-on-one with students who needed extra help.

When I tutor, I try to keep things straightforward and interactive. I usually start by asking what the student is struggling with, then walk through it step by step, using examples and practice questions to make sure it sticks. I’ve worked mostly with high school and college-aged students, and I aim to create a low-pressure environment where students feel comfortable asking questions. My goal is to help students feel more confident in science and not intimidated by it.

Approved Subjects

Anatomy

Anatomy

I have a strong foundation in anatomy through my academic background in Microbiology and Public Health, as well as my graduate training in Epidemiology. My coursework included human anatomy and physiology, with a focus on understanding body systems, structure–function relationships, and how these systems interact in both health and disease. I have experience helping students break down complex anatomical concepts into clear, organized frameworks, making it easier to understand and retain information. I emphasize connections between systems, functional understanding, and practical application. My background also allows me to integrate anatomy with physiology and pathology, helping students move beyond memorization and build a deeper, more usable understanding of the material.
Biology

Biology

I have a strong academic background in biology, supported by my Bachelor of Science degrees in Public Health and Microbiology and my Master of Public Health with a concentration in Epidemiology. My coursework and training have covered core biological concepts, including cell biology, genetics, physiology, microbiology, and disease processes, as well as their real-world applications in human health. Through my academic and professional experience, I have developed a deep understanding of how biological systems function and how to apply that knowledge to topics such as infectious diseases, immunology, and population health. I have also supported students in biology courses, helping them break down complex concepts, improve study strategies, and build confidence in applying scientific reasoning. I am comfortable working with high school and introductory college-level biology, and I focus on making material clear, engaging, and relevant while strengthening foundational skills needed for long-term success in science courses.
Biostatistics

Biostatistics

I have a strong background in biostatistics through my Master of Public Health with a concentration in epidemiology. As a Data Scientist, I regularly work with statistical methods to analyze public health data. I have experience using tools like R, SPSS, and SAS to clean, manage, and interpret datasets, including national-level health data. My work has involved applying concepts such as regression, hypothesis testing, and data visualization in real-world contexts. I focus on helping students understand both the calculations and the reasoning behind statistical methods so they can apply them confidently.
Psychology

Psychology

I have a strong academic and applied background in psychology through my Master of Public Health with a concentration in Epidemiology, where I studied behavioral health, mental health outcomes, and the social determinants of health. My graduate work included analyzing population-level data related to mental health and developing an understanding of how psychological principles influence health behaviors and decision-making.
