With over a decade of engineering experience at companies like Disney, ESPN, and Block, I know what it takes to succeed in tech — and I'm passionate about giving middle and high school students a head start. I hold a Computer Science degree from Trinity College, where I later served as a course facilitator for Trinity's CS program on edX. I contributed to the MIT Media Lab's App Inventor project, a platform designed specifically to introduce younger students to coding, and have worked directly with regional public high schools in Connecticut to bring mobile computing into the classroom. I also trained high school teachers through the Mobile CSP AP Computer Science professional development program, so I understand both how students learn and how great CS instruction is structured. Whether your student is just getting curious about computers, preparing for the AP CS exam, or ready to build their first real app, I meet them where they are breaking down complex ideas into concepts that click, building confidence, and making coding genuinely fun.

I hold a computer science degree from Trinity College and have spent about 10 years as a senior iOS engineer, tech lead, and engineering manager at ESPN, Disney, and Block (Square), so I bring real-world software experience to every lesson. Alongside my industry work, I’ve been deeply involved in CS education: I’ve contributed to MIT App Inventor, trained teachers for the AP Mobile CSP (Computer Science Principles) course, facilitated edX courses, and partnered with Connecticut public high schools on mobile computing. I teach programming fundamentals, AP Computer Science Principles, app development with App Inventor and Swift, and problem-solving skills for students at every level. I love helping students go from “I don’t get it” to building projects they’re proud of.
