I received my Bachelor's degree in art history, graduating with a 3.93 GPA. I love academia and research so I continued in the same field, earning a Master's degree (3.90 GPA). I am currently teaching art history at a large university where my students kindly entertain my dumb jokes. I love working with undergrads and helping students hone their critical thinking skills so that they can apply those skills in other academic disciplines as well as their everyday lives.

Loosely, art history is the study of the visual culture created by a people of a particular time and place. Appropriately, knowledge of history is fundamental to the study of art history. For my Master's thesis, I dealt primarily with 16th to early 19th century North American and European history, but also have a strong academic background in European history from the 6th to 15th centuries.

Previously, my background was in chemistry, a field which I studied and then worked in for many years before deciding to change career paths. As a result, I especially love working with students who plan on or are currently majoring in a STEM field. I know firsthand how difficult and at times frustrating it can be to relate the seemingly incompatible worlds of humanities and sciences, so one of the things I love most about tutoring is helping STEM students bridge that gap.

Everyone has something weird they feel strongly about. For me, it's formatting and citations for research papers. I can help with research strategies for a paper and then how to format and cite sources for that paper. Need help properly citing translated works from a published compilation of conference proceedings? I got you. I can also help develop paper topics, evaluate sources, and transcribe recorded class lectures for any subject.
