Hi!
I am a forensic DNA scientist and supervisor with 13 years of experience in a public forensic laboratory. In addition to conducting DNA casework, I supervise and mentor a team of criminalists, oversee training, and guide analysts through forensic DNA competency and casework rotations.
I have trained criminalists in STR analysis, mixture interpretation, electropherogram review, technical reporting, and courtroom preparation. I also testify in court regarding the results of DNA testing, which gives me practical insight into how scientific conclusions must be clearly supported and communicated.
My tutoring approach focuses on building strong conceptual foundations and developing analytical thinking — not just memorization. I break down complex topics into structured, manageable steps tailored to your course or goals.
I specialize in:
Forensic DNA analysis
STR and mixture interpretation
PCR and molecular techniques
Electropherogram review
Forensic report writing
Academic/mock courtroom preparation
Biology
Genetics
Biochemistry
Whether you are a high school, undergraduate or graduate student, my goal is to help you understand the science deeply and think like a practicing scientist.
