I am a Human Biology major with a Health Science emphasis and a Psychology major at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. I have completed all coursework for my B.S. in Human Biology, am continuing my education in Psychology, and will earn both degrees in May 2027. I am a high honors student, have been named to the Dean’s List all semesters, and have a strong foundation in biology, chemistry, anatomy and physiology, psychology, and health sciences.

I currently tutor: High School / AP (Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, and Psychology) and college-level Introductory Biology (Cell & Molecular), Microbiology, Cell Biology, Immunology, Anatomy & Physiology I & II, General Chemistry I, Organic Chemistry I & II, and Introductory Psychology. I have experience tutoring high school chemistry, Algebra I, and Biomedical Science as well as college Organic Chemistry and I serve as a peer mentor for pre-health high school and undergraduate students.

I also provide pre-med and pre-health advising, including interview prep, essay revision, course planning, extracurricular planning, research, volunteering, clinical experience, leadership, and study strategies.

My tutoring style focuses on making difficult courses feel more organized, manageable, and understandable. After being diagnosed with ADHD at 22, I had to adapt my own study methods and learn how attention, organization, and executive functioning affect academic performance. Because of that, I understand how frustrating it can be when traditional study strategies do not work.

I foster a welcoming, judgment-free environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, admitting confusion, and figuring out what actually works for them. Instead of only helping students memorize information, I help them break concepts into categories, understand the “why” behind the material, and connect details to the bigger picture. My goal is to help students improve their grades, build confidence, and develop stronger study strategies they can use beyond one exam.
