My background is in engineering and product development. I started my career as engineer number one at a startup building FDA-regulated manufacturing systems, and spent the following decades owning complex technical products across financial services, telecom, healthcare, and logistics. I studied Electrical Engineering at Clarkson University. STEM is not something I learned for a test. It is how I have worked for thirty years.
Teaching has run alongside my career the entire time. While in engineering school I tutored younger students in math and science. Living and working in Latin America, I taught English to adults in professional settings. In the corporate world I have coached teams and individuals on process, product thinking, and how to translate complex ideas into clear execution. The through line across all of it is the same: find where the confusion lives and work from there.
I tutor students in math, science, and process development. I do not merely teach formulas in isolation. I show students why the concept matters, and how it connects to real systems. Students who struggle with abstract material often find it easier when they can see it working in the world. I work one on one, at the student's pace, adjusting based on what is and is not landing. My goal is understanding, not just a better test score.
