I graduated from college as valedictorian, with a 4.0 GPA, then earned a PhD in Political Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My studies provided me a strong training in history, government, math, and writing, and I worked in data science for over five years.
I obtained my teaching experience during my time as a PhD student. I spent five semesters as a teaching assistant, leading small group discussion sessions for undergraduates. My passion for teaching led me to seek opportunities to serve as a lecturer, something done by only a few of my graduate school colleagues. Among the topics I taught were statistics and game theory as applied to political science, the politics of race and ethnicity in America, and general courses in American politics.
While I found all of my teaching to be very rewarding, I most enjoyed working one-on-one with students during office hours. In these settings, I was able to personalize my instruction to each student, helping explain concepts in the ways that worked best for them. My desire to provide this individual attention to learning styles and cultivate each student's abilities naturally led me to seek opportunities to tutor.
