Biography

While completing my double major in political science and applied mathematics at UC Berkeley degree, I got the chance to explore and discover many interests. I became passionate about ecology and pursued a Masters from the IU O’Neil School of Environmental and Public Affairs with a focus in Municipal Policy. My interdisciplinary background gives me the scope and flexibility to help with the many topics covered by the SAT.

I loved my time at UC Berkeley, where I found my fiancé and my passion for writing. As an out of state student it was difficult to get in, and I appreciate how much my SAT score and essays helped me. I want to enable more students to go to their dream school, whatever it may be. I appreciate AJ’s support and thorough system enabling this.

At UC Berkeley I also found my interest in tutoring through running the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writing Workshop. I ran exercises, critique sessions, and presentations on writing and had a great time doing it. After school I went through a brief stint in a corporate finance job before realizing I wanted to get more into connecting to my community and enabling learning. I want to engage with each student as an individual and respect mental health. I’ve volunteered as a facilitator for community support groups for many years and find it meaningful to support people in their lives and goals.

When I’m not tutoring I’m pursuing my creative work. I love writing and making colorful digital art using Procreate on I-Pad. I write sci-fi and fantasy novels and short stories with the support of my fiancé, who’s also a writer.

"My tutor was fantastic in helping me understand how to begin to look as problems on the SAT. She helped to explain difficult concepts in simple ways, and gave me insight as to how I would see these concepts presented on the test. "
