Bio

I'm a Data Scientist with a Master's in Data Science from Johns Hopkins University and a Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering. My technical expertise spans Python, machine learning, deep learning, NLP, and statistics: all skills I apply daily in building real-world AI and ML systems.

I'm a Data Scientist with a Master's in Data Science from Johns Hopkins University and a Bachelor's in Electrical Engineering. My technical expertise spans Python, machine learning, deep learning, NLP, and statistics: all skills I apply daily in building real-world AI and ML systems.
I first tutored at Johns Hopkins through the Tutorial Project, where I worked one-on-one with an elementary school student in mathematics. I am really proud of the hard work she put in, and her math level jumped from second grade to grade level: progress that her teachers and parents both noticed and celebrated.

Learning only happens when a student is genuinely engaged, so I focus on making sessions collaborative, intuitive, and fun. I tailor my approach to where the student is, not where I think they should be. I always start from the basics, so that a student can truly understand the subject.

I tutor in:
Mathematics (elementary through college level)
Python programming
Data Science
Machine Learning & Deep Learning

Whether you're a student just starting out or a professional looking to upskill, I'd love to help you get there! Learning is not a linear process, but as long as you put in the work, you can get to wherever you want to be.

Approved Subjects

Calculus

Calculus

I hold a Master's in Data Science from JHU, where calculus was foundational to my training in ML and deep learning. I can help students work through derivatives, integrals, and beyond, connecting abstract concepts to real-world intuition wherever possible. You might think calculus has no place in the real world. Still, beyond the formulas, it teaches you how to think. Things like how to break down complex problems, reason through change, and approach challenges systematically. These skills WILL help you long term.
Data Science

Data Science

I work as a Data Scientist building end-to-end ML solutions, including gradient boosting models, deep learning algorithms, LLM evaluation frameworks, and GenAI prototypes. I hold a Master's in Data Science from Johns Hopkins University with concentrations in Machine Learning, Statistics, and Databases. I can guide students from foundational concepts to advanced topics, always grounding theory in practical, real-world examples.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I tutored an elementary school student one-on-one through JHU's Tutorial Project, helping her make noticeable progress from second-grade level to grade level, as her teachers and parents both noticed. Math confidence truly starts early, and it is imperative to make numbers intuitive and fun. Math literacy provides such high value to every person in the long run, so I start from the basics and move at the student's pace, ensuring real understanding before moving on.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I tailor sessions to the student's pace, always starting from first principles because nothing should feel like memorization. Being strong in pre-calculus is what sets a student up for long-term success in math. With my background in engineering and data science, I believe anyone can build this skill, as long as the focus is on understanding the why rather than just memorizing formulas.
Python

Python

I have used and continue to use Python professionally for several years as a Data Scientist, building machine learning pipelines and data processing frameworks. From writing clean beginner scripts to designing production-grade systems, I've done it all. I can teach Python from absolute scratch or help intermediate/beginner programmers level up, covering stuff from core syntax to libraries like Pandas, NumPy, and ML libraries.
Statistics

Statistics

I hold a Master's in Data Science from Johns Hopkins University with a concentration in Statistics. I teach statistics by grounding every concept in real examples, making abstract ideas like distributions, hypothesis testing, and regression feel concrete and applicable. I use statistics every day at work, so they are the core of many of the things I work on.
