Hello! I recently finished a Master's in Data Science at the University of Texas at Austin. Before that, I earned Bachelor's degrees in Evolutionary Biology and Kinesiology at Rice University. I graduated with 4.0 GPA, a Distinction in Research and Creative Work, and straight As in my math, statistics, and science coursework. I spent several years there doing evolutionary biology research, where I was first author on a paper published in PNAS.

Hello! I recently finished a Master's in Data Science at the University of Texas at Austin. Before that, I earned Bachelor's degrees in Evolutionary Biology and Kinesiology at Rice University. I graduated with 4.0 GPA, a Distinction in Research and Creative Work, and straight As in my math, statistics, and science coursework. I spent several years there doing evolutionary biology research, where I was first author on a paper published in PNAS.
I've tutored and taught in a few different settings. In college, I was a teaching assistant for a Python programming class, working one-on-one and in small groups with students who were stuck. This past school year, I've volunteered at my local library helping K-12 students with homework, ranging from elementary math to high school science. That work taught me about the diverse ways that students learn. When I tutor, I ask questions, draw diagrams or tables, and try to lead a student to the answer rather than just telling them. I try to be patient and kind, and I want students to feel comfortable making mistakes. As a student, I was often scared to go to tutoring myself, so I try hard to be extra approachable and make sure students never feel judged for not knowing something.
I'm comfortable tutoring algebra 1 and 2, elementary math and science, statistics, and Python and R programming. Feel free to contact me with any questions or schedule a lesson!
