Hello! I’m excited you’re taking the next step in your learning journey. I’m a patient, experienced science teacher who personalizes each session to fit your goals and learning style.

I bring 8 years of classroom experience in middle and high school science, including Chemistry, AP Biology, Earth Science, Anatomy & Kinesiology, and AP Environmental Science. I’ve helped students earn 5s on AP exams, strengthen study habits, and raise their grades with clear, practical strategies.

I earned my Master of Teaching from the University of Virginia’s Curry School of Education, where I scored in the top 10% nationally on the Biology PRAXIS. I currently teach at Christ School, a private boarding school in Asheville, NC.

My goal is to help you build confidence and achieve measurable progress. Together, we’ll set clear, actionable goals that extend beyond our sessions. I’m responsive, easy to reach, and happy to collaborate with students and parents to ensure success.

I look forward to working with you!

Approved Subjects

Biology

Biology

In addition to teaching college-level biology at the AP level for the past few years, I am equally comfortable simplifying complex concepts so that anyone can understand them. In college, I conducted my own independent study and afterwards worked for the Bureau of Land Management as a botanist. This informs my knowledge of how to write a great lab report and how to explain the scientific process as it relates to biology. I have also recently participated as an AP reader grading student exams, which has given me insight into you can give yourself the best chance of scoring highly.
Environmental Science

Environmental Science

In addition to instructing a diverse array of youth in AP environmental science, I have also been selected as an AP reader, grading students responses on the free response section of the 2025 AP Environmental Science exam. This has given me insights into how to best prepare for and score highly on the exam.
