My educational background provides a strong foundation for tutoring across social sciences, communications, and writing-focused subjects. I hold a Master's degree in Public Affairs from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, where my graduate work strengthened my analytical thinking, research abilities, and understanding of government, policy, and community systems. Before that, I completed my bachelor’s degree in Political Science, which deepened my knowledge of civics, social studies, and public institutions. I also hold a Certified Nutrition Coach credential, which equips me to support learners in health-related topics with evidence-based guidance.
Throughout my professional career, I have consistently taught, coached, and guided learners in both structured and informal settings. At Junior Achievement of Southeastern Pennsylvania, I manage experiential learning programs that place me directly in classrooms and youth environments, working with middle and high-school students on career readiness, financial literacy, and real-world skill development. My work requires adapting instruction to different age groups, facilitating group learning, and breaking down complex ideas into accessible, engaging lessons. In previous communications roles at Bebashi and UPMC, I regularly trained staff, supported public-facing messaging, and developed clear, instructional materials experiences that strengthened my ability to teach writing, communication, and media skills to learners who benefit from step-by-step guidance.
Across these roles, I have worked with students and professionals ranging from early teens to adults, in one-on-one settings, small groups, and classroom environments. My tutoring approach emphasizes clarity, patience, and real-world application. Whether helping a student understand a civics concept, guiding them through a writing assignment, or supporting communication skill development, I focus on building confidence and ensuring they understand not just the "what," but the "why" behind each concept.
