I hold a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering from Columbia University, where my research focused on developing single-molecule imaging methods to study protein glycosylation. I also earned my M.S. and M.Phil. in Biomedical Engineering from Columbia and my B.A. in Physics from Yeshiva University. My background spans math, physics, chemistry, and biology, giving me a broad foundation to explain scientific concepts from multiple perspectives and connect theory to real-world applications.
As part of my doctoral program, I served as a teaching assistant for two semesters, where I guided students through challenging coursework in biomedical engineering. I worked closely with graduate students, emphasizing conceptual understanding and problem-solving rather than rote memorization. My approach is interactive and student-centered—I encourage asking “why” at every step, using visual explanations to make abstract material accessible.
I have also mentored several students in the laboratory, training them in experimental design and data analysis. My goal is to build understanding and critical thinking skills in my students. I’m passionate about helping learners truly understand the material to gain independence, and I tailor my teaching style to each student’s pace and background to help them succeed.
