I am a graduate of North Carolina Central University where I received my Bachelor of Arts summa cum laude in Biology with minors in Jazz studies and Philosophy. When I became an undergraduate I wanted to continue to help students, so I started a tutoring program for underclassmen who were struggling in their science courses. I love science and medicine and I love teaching students to understand and appreciate how cool science can be. I believe that once you understand the concepts and how they fit into the larger framework, it makes memorizing a lot easier and it gives you the command of the material that enables you to do well on any exam. When I am not doing research or thinking about the brain, I love to play jazz, soul, and RandB in the New England area. I also play tennis and soccer on a regular basis.

I enjoy studying and playing music, especially jazz music. I play the piano and bass guitar at various events in the New England area. I also enjoy playing soccer and tennis and working out.
