Hi! I am a fourth-year medical student with a strong foundation in the biological sciences and extensive tutoring experience. I earned my undergraduate degree in Biology summa cum laude and am currently completing my MD training. I passed the USMLE exams on my first attempt, with my Step 2 performance placing me in a top national percentile.

I have over six years of tutoring experience, including three years during undergraduate studies and three years throughout medical school. I have worked with students across multiple levels, from undergraduates building core biology and physiology foundations to medical students preparing for exams and clinical rotations.

I specialize in undergraduate biology, anatomy and physiology, medical school coursework, and USMLE-style question review. My teaching approach is structured, efficient, and individualized. I focus on identifying knowledge gaps quickly, breaking down complex concepts into clear and intuitive explanations, and reinforcing learning through active problem-solving and application-based review.

My goal is to help students improve performance while developing confidence and long-term understanding of the material. I tailor each session to the student’s learning style and academic goals, and I strive to create a supportive, focused, and productive learning environment. I encourage students to reach out with any questions or to schedule a session.

Approved Subjects

Anatomy

Anatomy

I am a fourth-year medical student with extensive anatomy training and teaching experience. I have completed two full rounds of gross anatomy laboratory with cadaver dissection, served as an anatomy teaching assistant during undergraduate studies, and worked as an anatomy tutor in medical school. I have a strong foundation in musculoskeletal, neuroanatomy, and visceral anatomy. My teaching focuses on clear spatial understanding, clinical relevance, and long-term retention.
Interview Prep

Interview Prep

I am a fourth-year medical student with extensive experience preparing applicants for medical school interviews, including both traditional and MMI formats. I was accepted to eight medical schools, giving me firsthand insight into what admissions committees look for and how to communicate experiences effectively. I help students structure clear, authentic responses, practice common and high-stress interview scenarios, and refine delivery, confidence, and professionalism. My approach is structured, supportive, and individualized to each applicant’s background, goals, and target programs.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I am a fourth-year medical student with extensive experience mentoring applicants through medical school personal statement and application essay development. I was accepted to eight medical schools and have helped students clarify their narratives, highlight strengths, and communicate their motivations authentically and effectively. I focus on structure, clarity, tone, and storytelling while ensuring each statement remains the student’s own voice and meets professional and ethical standards. My approach is supportive, detail-oriented, and tailored to each applicant’s background, goals, and target programs.
Pharmacology

Pharmacology

I am a fourth-year medical student with over six years of tutoring experience in pharmacology and the biomedical sciences. I specialize in teaching drug mechanisms, therapeutic uses, adverse effects, contraindications, and clinically relevant drug interactions. My approach emphasizes understanding drug classes and physiologic principles rather than rote memorization. Sessions are structured, efficient, and tailored to each student’s background, goals, and learning style.
Physiology

Physiology

I am a fourth-year medical student with a strong academic and clinical foundation in physiology. I have completed advanced coursework in cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, neuro, and endocrine physiology and regularly apply these principles in clinical training. I have several years of tutoring experience helping students understand physiologic mechanisms and integrate concepts across systems. My teaching focuses on clarity, logic, and building true understanding rather than memorization.
USMLE

USMLE

I am a fourth-year medical student with extensive experience preparing students for USMLE Step 1 and Step 2. I passed both exams on my first attempt, with my Step 2 performance placing me in a top national percentile, and I have tutored medical students throughout all years of training. I focus on high-yield content review, USMLE-style question analysis, and building strong clinical reasoning skills rather than rote memorization. My sessions are structured, individualized, and designed to help students improve scores while gaining confidence and long-term mastery of the material.
