"Having attended Lakeside School in Seattle, WA and graduated magna cum laude from Dartmouth College, I know what it takes to excel academically. I know that it takes determination and discipline. But it also requires a passion for learning and an understanding of the big picture. My students excel not because they obsess over every tiny detail of a physics problem or memorize every fact in their history textbook, but because I help them develop keen critical thinking skills, self-motivation, and a strong work ethic that enables them to find inspiration and follow their dreams to excellence.

I've tutored and taught students from elementary school through college in Seattle, New Hampshire, New York, and India, working with Learning Enterprises, America Reads, Children's Media Project, and many independent students. I not only tutor most high school subjects, but also assist with college counseling, essay writing, and test prep. If you're looking for an enthusiastic and responsible tutor with a holistic focus on academic achievement and empowering pedagogy, please feel free to contact me so we can have a conversation about you or your student's needs and opportunities.

I follow current events voraciously and often engage my students in critical discussion of contemporary and historical issues, especially relating to their interests or coursework. In addition to part time tutoring for select students, I am an independent technology, media, and education consultant and entrepreneur. I look forward to speaking with you or your student soon!" less...
