I am a local high school math teacher with over a decade of classroom and tutoring experience, currently teaching North Carolina Math 2 and Math 3. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Finance and a Master's of Education in Mathematics and bring private experience from working with industrial companies like United Rentals and PSI Control Solutions. My technical background helps me connect mathematical concepts to real-world applications, making lessons both engaging and practical.

My tutoring experience includes working with students one-on-one and in small groups across middle school, high school, and standardized test preparation settings. I co-authored the book How to Survive Middle School: Math published by Penguin Random House, which aims to help students understand foundational skills through real-life scenarios. I focus on building student confidence by meeting learners where they are, using tools like Desmos, IXL, and hands-on strategies tailored to different learning styles. Whether supporting struggling students or challenging gifted learners, I emphasize critical thinking and problem-solving strategies in a supportive and encouraging environment.

I’ve worked with a wide range of students—from sixth graders building pre-algebra skills to high schoolers preparing for the SAT and ACT. My goal is to help every student feel empowered to understand math deeply and succeed on their academic journey.
