I am a college student at the University of Maryland, pursuing a degree in Business Information Systems with a focus on Data Science. My strong academic background in mathematics, physics, and computer science has equipped me with a solid foundation to guide students through complex topics in a clear and approachable way. I have always enjoyed breaking down challenging concepts into understandable steps, which helps students not only solve problems but also gain confidence in their abilities.

I have several years of tutoring and teaching experience, working with students ranging from middle school to high school. My approach emphasizes hands-on learning and interactive problem-solving, encouraging students to ask questions and explore multiple methods to arrive at a solution. I tailor each session to the student’s needs, focusing on building both conceptual understanding and practical skills. Over the years, I have conducted one-on-one tutoring sessions as well as small group study sessions, helping students prepare for exams, improve grades, and develop long-term study strategies.

Beyond academics, I strive to make learning engaging and relevant. I incorporate real-world examples and step-by-step explanations, ensuring that students not only memorize procedures but also understand the reasoning behind them. My goal is to create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable tackling difficult topics and celebrating their progress along the way.

I passed both AP Computer Science A and AP Computer Science Principles and have strong experience applying those concepts through real-world coding projects. I have built machine learning and computer vision systems using Python, TensorFlow, Keras, and OpenCV, including a weapon detection algorithm and an American Sign Language recognition system that converts hand gestures into speech and text. I also developed an application designed to stimulate memory in dementia patients using eye-tracking technology and algorithmic analysis. Through these projects and coursework, I developed strong skills in algorithms, programming, and software development, which I use to help students understand both core computer science concepts and practical coding applications.
Data Science

Data Science

I study Data Science alongside Business Information Systems and have extensive experience applying Python, machine learning, and computational modeling to real research projects. In collaboration with the Baruch S. Blumberg Institute, I conducted computational drug discovery research where I screened over 100,000 drug compounds using molecular docking simulations to identify potential inhibitors for beta-amyloid protein linked to Alzheimer’s disease. I analyzed large datasets from these simulations to identify top candidate compounds based on binding affinity and molecular interactions. I also develop machine learning models and data analysis pipelines using tools such as Python, TensorFlow, and SQL to solve complex real-world problems.
