About Me

I graduated cum laude with a bachelor's in biochemistry, and have privately tutored for the MCAT, biology, chemistry, and physiology for 4 years. After covering medical courses in anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, biochemistry, and genetics, I feel confident tutoring those subjects at an undergraduate level, especially for students looking towards a career in the medical field. My experience in medical school gave me a deep understanding of core science subjects. There's so many different ways to learn the same material, and it's my mission to find the way that clicks for each individual. During my experience as a private tutor, I have honed my ability to customize study plans with my students, to fit their needs. For many of my students, I will go through individual questions, and break it down step by step until they feel confident in the material. Furthermore, for exam prep, I also teach and reinforce test taking strategy. My MCAT score was a 37 which corresponds to the 98th percentile. I make sure to review new materials and keep up with changes to help students with the upcoming cycle. As someone who's been through the application process, I know it is rigorous, but not insurmountable. Feel free to contact me for lessons, homework help, or exam preparation, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. My schedule is flexible, especially online, and I am ready to help meet your goals.

Hobbies & Interests

I love reading fantasy novels, both for the entertainment and social commentary. My favorite authors are Terry Pratchett and Seanan Mcguire. I have a degree in pastry and baking arts and enjoy making tarts, cookies, cakes, and dessert cups. Occasionally, I sketch either digitally or on paper. All my remaining free time is taken up by two very affectionate cats, Winnie and Ember.
