I am a Ph.D. mathematician with more than 20 years of professional experience in cybersecurity and technical leadership. My academic background in mathematics, combined with a long career working in highly technical environments, allows me to tutor a wide range of college-level subjects, including calculus, linear algebra, discrete mathematics, algorithms, programming, and cybersecurity.
My formal teaching includes both in-class room as well as one-on-one tutoring/mentoring. In particular, mentoring and one-on-one instruction have been central parts of my career. I spent many years working closely with junior mathematicians, engineers, analysts, and technical staff. I helped them develop mathematical intuition, understand complex systems, and strengthen their analytical and problem-solving skills. This mentoring was typically done in individualized settings, working through difficult concepts step-by-step and adapting explanations to the learner’s background.
My approach to tutoring emphasizes clarity, structure, and deep understanding. I focus on breaking difficult ideas into manageable pieces, guiding students through problem-solving strategies, and helping them build the confidence needed to succeed in technical subjects.
Now semi-retired, I enjoy continuing this kind of individualized teaching by working with college and advanced high-school students who want to strengthen their understanding of mathematics, computer science, or cybersecurity.
