Bio

I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2020 with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, earning highest honors (summa cum laude). I am currently a software engineer at a FAANG company, where I work on complex technical systems and apply the same analytical and problem-solving skills that I teach to my students.

I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2020 with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, earning highest honors (summa cum laude). I am currently a software engineer at a FAANG company, where I work on complex technical systems and apply the same analytical and problem-solving skills that I teach to my students. I specialize in tutoring math, science, and computer science, and I am fully bilingual, offering instruction in both English and Spanish to support students from diverse backgrounds.
I have over three years of tutoring experience, including two years of formal tutoring during high school and one year during college. I have worked with students ranging from elementary school through high school, helping them build confidence and mastery in subjects such as algebra, geometry, calculus, chemistry, anatomy, computer science, and general math and science. My teaching approach focuses on breaking complex problems into smaller, understandable steps and making sure students truly grasp the underlying concepts rather than relying on memorization.
Throughout my tutoring experience, I have helped many struggling students significantly improve their academic performance. Several students I worked with moved from C or D averages to earning A grades, sometimes within just a few sessions. I focus on building strong fundamentals, encouraging critical thinking, and adapting my teaching style to each student’s learning pace so they develop both understanding and long-term confidence in STEM subjects.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I was a straight-A student throughout high school and graduated in the top 10 of my class (top 1.5%). I later earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin, graduating with highest honors (summa cum laude). My academic background included advanced math coursework requiring strong algebraic problem-solving and analytical thinking skills. I have several years of tutoring experience helping students from elementary through high school succeed in math, including Algebra 2. My teaching style focuses on breaking complex problems into smaller, understandable steps while making sure students truly understand the underlying concepts instead of memorizing formulas. Today I work as a software engineer at a FAANG company, where mathematical reasoning, logic, and structured problem solving are part of my daily work. I aim to help students build both confidence and long-term problem-solving skills that extend beyond the classroom.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin and currently work as a Software Development Engineer at a FAANG company, where I design and build large-scale software and AI-driven systems. My professional experience includes backend development, distributed systems, APIs, scalable cloud infrastructure, event-driven architectures, CI/CD pipelines, multi-region systems, and large-scale data platforms processing over 100 million events. I have professional programming experience in Python, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, Kotlin, Ruby, Swift, and React Native. I also specialize in artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, including large language models (LLMs), prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), AI agent pipelines, AI evaluation frameworks, A/B testing, zero/one-shot learning, human-in-the-loop feedback systems, and continuous AI model iteration. In addition to my industry experience, I have several years of tutoring and mentorship experience helping students understand programming fundamentals, debugging, algorithms, object-oriented programming, and computational thinking. My teaching approach focuses on breaking down complex technical concepts into simple, step-by-step explanations so students develop a strong understanding of both the theory and practical application of computer science concepts.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin and currently work as a Software Development Engineer at a FAANG company, where I design and build large-scale software systems and AI-driven platforms. My professional experience includes building distributed systems, designing data pipelines, and developing AI-powered applications that process hundreds of millions of events. In addition to my industry experience, I have several years of tutoring experience helping students understand computer science concepts such as programming fundamentals, algorithms, and problem solving. I have worked with students from middle school through college, helping them build strong foundations in logical thinking and computational concepts. My teaching approach focuses on breaking complex technical ideas into simple, understandable steps so students learn how to think like engineers rather than memorizing solutions. I also help students understand how computer science concepts connect to real-world systems and modern technologies used in industry.
Data Structures

Data Structures

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin, where I completed advanced coursework in Data Structures and Algorithms and earned an A+ in my Data Structures course. My academic background focused heavily on algorithmic thinking, computational problem solving, complexity analysis, and designing efficient software systems. I currently work as a Software Development Engineer at a FAANG company, where data structures and algorithms are a core part of both software development and technical interviewing. In addition to building large-scale distributed systems and high-performance backend platforms, I actively conduct technical interviews using industry-standard data structures and algorithm problems, giving me strong familiarity with the concepts, expectations, and problem-solving approaches used in real-world software engineering interviews. I have experience helping students understand topics such as arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, hash maps, graphs, recursion, sorting, searching, and Big O analysis. My teaching style focuses on helping students develop strong problem-solving intuition and truly understand why and when different data structures are used, rather than simply memorizing solutions or patterns.
Python

Python

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Austin and currently work as a Software Development Engineer at a FAANG company. I use Python professionally for software development, automation, backend systems, AI workflows, and large-scale data processing. I have experience helping students and beginners build strong programming fundamentals, including variables, functions, loops, conditionals, debugging, and problem solving. My teaching approach focuses on breaking concepts into simple, understandable steps while connecting lessons to practical, real-world use cases. In addition to general programming instruction, I can also help students learn how Python is used for automation, spreadsheets, reporting, APIs, and data analysis workflows. My goal is to help students feel comfortable and confident writing code while developing skills they can apply directly in school, work, or personal projects.
