"I was a Senior Software Programmer until recently.

I have a Masters Degree in Math from UCLA, BS in Math from UCI with minor in Computer Science, GPA: 3.928 Magna Cum Laude, and an Honors in Mathematics.

I am a National Master of Chess with USCF Rating 2230. My peak blitz rating on Chess.com is 2648. I'm good at teaching basic middle game principles.

I am Adjunct Faculty at Glendale Community College as well as a Software Integration Engineer at a software company.

I have 20+ years of tutoring/teaching experience.

I'm usually very goofy and clumsy. Students are never afraid of asking me questions.

I know how to teach to students who love math and how to make it simple for students who hate math." less...
