My philosophy as an engineer, researcher, and tutor is to foster understanding of fundamental STEM concepts and apply them to solve advanced problems independently in class and real-world settings (the WHY, not just the HOW, makes things intuitive). I also present information with transparency and patience to accommodate different paces, backgrounds, and mindsets.

My philosophy as an engineer, researcher, and tutor is to foster understanding of fundamental STEM concepts and apply them to solve advanced problems independently in class and real-world settings (the WHY, not just the HOW, makes things intuitive). I also present information with transparency and patience to accommodate different paces, backgrounds, and mindsets. I offer AP Exam prep, test prep, coursework help, and other assistance for STEM topics and more niche subjects such as data analysis and software (MATLAB, JMP, and ImageJ/FIJI). Most of my sessions have involved applied math, physics, chemistry, and biology topics, alongside project management and data analysis. Recently, I have also observed that many people of all ages lack foundational digital and desktop computer skills, so I am dedicated to increasing basic computer literacy.
I am an analytical, dedicated professional with diverse hands-on experience in bioengineering, biomedical engineering, research, problem-solving, and project management. Having received extensive graduate-level education, I have strong capability in reviewing technical literature and presenting research findings efficiently. My B.S. in Bioengineering (and Chemistry minor) is from Temple University. I also have a M.S. degree from Temple (Accelerated 4+1 Program) and another from Cornell University, in Bioengineering and Biomedical Engineering, respectively. As an undergrad, 42 transfer credits from AP courses designated me a senior by credit after 3 semesters.
I also have 7 semesters (900+ hours of in-class/lab work and other activities) of university teaching assistant (TA) experience (2 as an undergrad, 5 as a grad student) spanning a wide range of scientific as well as mathematically/statistics-intensive subjects at the university undergraduate level (Research Design & Methods, Bioelectrical Engineering, Biomaterials, Biomechanics, Physiology of Human Health and Disease, and Ethical Issues in Biomedical Science, Engineering, and Technology).
