Hi, I'm Alex - I help students build the confidence and problem-solving skills to master challenging technical subjects.

I hold a Master's degree in Applied Physics and dual Bachelor's degrees in Math and Physics from UNC Charlotte. Since graduating, I've worked as a data engineer at a digital marketing agency, building production data pipelines and internal tools, and previously developed AI prototypes for early stage startups. This real-world experience helps me show students how these concepts apply beyond the classroom.

My approach focuses on building long-term understanding rather than just getting through the next assignment. I help you break down complex problems into manageable pieces, understand the underlying principles, and develop the analytical skills to tackle new challenges independently.

If you're working through a challenging course, returning to school, or trying to make a career shift, I'd love to support you. I create a supportive learning environment where you can ask questions, experiment, and learn without judgment. My goal is for you to walk away with not just the right answers, but with genuine confidence in your ability to solve problems on your own.

Data Science

Data Science

I have just over 5 years of experience working with data starting with analyzing experimental results for my research. I built the initial deep learning models and analytics pipelines for 2 early stage startups. Over the past 2-3 years I’ve been helping students with intro to data science courses with a focus on building machine learning models from scratch and using popular libraries such as scikit-learn and pytorch.

Very knowledgeable and patient

Alex is a very patient tutor. He helped me with my Python assignment and explain everything in a clear and concise manner. He shared additional resources with me that very helpful after the lesson. I highly recommend him.

Emina, 1 lesson with Alex

Much better at explaining than my professor

I went over lecture slides with him and I understood the content better than how I initially understood it in class.

Christopher, 2 lessons with Alex

Excellent tutor

Alex is very knowledgeable on many different topics and has great patience to provide guidance. He is an excellent tutor.

Explains the material then walks you through

He was well worth my time and helped me to complete a lesson I really understood and didn't understand that I did (90% anyway) so even though I've been a long time since I had used python I remembered a lot more than I could do with it.

Amazing tutor for physics

I am in college physics 1 and was really struggling to succeed with online learning only. Alex has been amazing to work with. He’s incredibly clear and makes complicated concepts easy to understand. I strongly recommend him.
