Hello! I'm a medical doctor currently completing my surgical internship while preparing to apply for anesthesiology residency. I also hold a Master of Science in Environmental Science, and my educational background includes degrees in biology, world business, philosophy, and art history. My interdisciplinary training has taught me how to adapt my thinking—and my teaching—to a wide variety of learners. I’ve worked as a supplemental instructor (a hybrid of tutor and TA), where I led group review sessions and helped students prepare for exams by breaking down complex topics and reinforcing fundamentals. I also completed a clinical mentorship with a neuro-immunologist, which further deepened my understanding of the nervous and immune systems. I'm fluent in Spanish and currently learning French, so I fully understand the challenges and rewards of being a lifelong learner.

I tutor anatomy, physiology, neuroscience, pharmacology, and environmental science, and I specialize in helping high school and college students build confidence and consistency. My tutoring style combines active recall, spaced repetition, and Socratic questioning to help you engage more deeply with the material. I also emphasize working through practice questions and breaking down complex concepts into manageable parts, especially for students preparing for premed coursework or exams. I tailor each session to your learning style and goals, and I focus on long-term mastery, not just short-term cramming. Whether you're just trying to pass a tough class or aiming for top scores, I’ll help you build a study system that actually works and support you throughout the semester. I love working with students regularly—weekly or biweekly—so we can make real, lasting progress together.

Approved Subjects

Environmental Science

Environmental Science

I hold a Master’s in Environmental Science and have a deep understanding of ecological systems, sustainability, and human health impacts on the environment. My background in medicine gives me a unique, interdisciplinary perspective—particularly in areas like environmental health, toxicology, and climate effects on public health. I’ve worked as a supplemental instructor and tutor for both high school and college students, adapting lessons to suit a variety of learning styles. Whether you're tackling general coursework or a more advanced topic, I can help you master the material with clarity and confidence.
Neuroscience

Neuroscience

I hold a medical degree and completed a clinical mentorship with a neuro-immunologist, giving me firsthand insight into complex neurological and immune system interactions. My neuroscience foundation spans neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neuropharmacology, strengthened by my clinical training and ongoing preparation for the USMLE Step 3. I tutor with a focus on long-term understanding, helping students grasp challenging topics like neural circuits, neurotransmitters, and brain-body communication. Whether you're a high school student, premed, or in undergrad neuroscience courses, I tailor sessions to your learning style and goals.
Pharmacology

Pharmacology

As a medical doctor currently completing a surgery internship and applying to anesthesiology residency, I have a strong command of pharmacology across clinical and academic contexts. I’m well-versed in drug mechanisms, therapeutic uses, side effects, and pharmacokinetics—especially in relation to systems-level physiology. I apply pharmacological principles daily in clinical settings and continue to study them in preparation for USMLE Step 3. My tutoring style emphasizes understanding over memorization to help students think critically about drug actions and safety.
