I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and a Master’s degree in Gender and Development, which provide me with a strong foundation in human behavior, social systems, equity, and critical thinking. I later earned my Career and Technical Education (CTE) Business Teacher license and currently work as a high school business educator. My academic background, combined with professional certifications, allows me to effectively tutor subjects such as business, economics, entrepreneurship, and AP Psychology, with an emphasis on real-world application and student understanding.
Before transitioning into education, I spent over 10 years working in corporate fundraising, where I developed expertise in business strategy, marketing, financial planning, data analysis, communication, and organizational management. This professional experience strongly informs my teaching and tutoring, as I help students connect theoretical concepts to practical, real-life examples. In the classroom, I use student-centered and inquiry-based approaches, breaking down complex ideas into clear, manageable steps while encouraging critical thinking and confidence. I emphasize structure, modeling, guided practice, and feedback, which are especially effective for students preparing for exams or struggling with organization and extended responses.
I have been teaching high school students for several years in a classroom setting, working with diverse learners across grades 9–12, including students enrolled in AP courses and career-focused programs. My experience includes whole-class instruction, small-group support, and one-on-one academic intervention. As a tutor, I adapt my approach to meet individual learning needs, whether supporting content mastery, exam preparation, or skill development. My background in social work also strengthens my ability to build rapport, support executive functioning, and create a supportive learning environment that helps students succeed academically.
