I hold a B.S. and M.A. in Mathematics from UC San Diego, graduating summa cum laude with a 4.17 LSAC GPA. As a military veteran, I bring discipline and a commitment to excellence to everything I do. I also earned a perfect 180 on the LSAT, reflecting strong analytical reasoning and logical thinking that translate directly into effective tutoring.
I know what it feels like to be a student preparing for the LSAT — I worked with a tutor myself before achieving my perfect score, and that experience shapes how I teach.
During my master's program I tutored undergraduates at UCSD in Calculus I, II, and III and Mathematical Logic — the same age group as most LSAT students. I created both general and individually tailored practice problems, walked students through solutions step by step, led focused exam prep sessions, and reviewed returned tests with students to identify exactly where their reasoning went wrong.
My Mathematical Logic background is especially relevant to the LSAT. The Logical Reasoning and Analytical Reasoning sections rely on the same principles — conditional statements, negation, contrapositive reasoning, and argument structure — that I taught rigorously in an academic setting. This allows me to help students understand the underlying logic, not just memorize patterns, which is what drives real score improvement.
My approach emphasizes understanding over memorization, breaking complex ideas into manageable steps, and personalizing instruction to each student's pace and learning style.
