As an educator and mentor, I focus on clarity, precision, and adaptability. My tutoring philosophy centers on understanding each student’s goals, comprehension level, and learning style to provide the best instruction. My sessions begin with clarifying what the student needs, where they are on the learning curve, and identifying their goals. From there, I adapt my approach to ensure my student's understanding of the material. My teaching reflects professionalism, patience, and a commitment to helping students think. My goal is to make the student thrive.
I am a chess enthusiast and team captain. I bring mentorship, and creativity to my education, inspiring students to reason deeply, communicate clearly, and approach every challenge with confidence and purpose.
I have taught at the Stevens Institute of Technology as an Adjunct Professor in the School of Business, leading courses in system innovation, data analytics, and design strategies. My teaching journey began as an independent tutor while studying at St. John’s University, where I discovered my passion for helping others grasp complex ideas in finance, statistics, and writing. That passion extends to my lifelong interest in history, philosophy, and literature, disciplines that sharpen reasoning, creativity, and communication. I also teach MS Excel modeling, business writing, and applied statistics, emphasizing how logic and structure can turn data into meaningful insight.
I am a finance professional with over 25 years of experience in banking for major Wall Street firms, as well as an educator and published author with two master’s degrees and a certificate in Data Science and Systems Engineering. I specialize in statistics, regression modeling, probability, and risk analysis, applying data-driven insights to complex financial systems. I have held my Series 7 and 66 licenses and worked as a broker and financial advisor. A recognized expert in MS Excel and PowerPoint, I pair technical precision with strong writing and communication skills.
