"Regardless of how you find me, you will undoubtedly sense my enthusiasm for aerospace engineering and love of aviation. Through tutoring, I look forward to sharing my passion for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

I hold degrees from the University of Notre Dame (Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering), California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (Master of Science in Engineering), and Purdue University (PhD in Aeronautics and Astronautics). I have over 15 years of professional experience as an Aerospace Engineer and also hold a private pilot certificate.

While the underlying subjects can be challenging, I particularly enjoy applying math and physics to real-world problems. I believe this approach makes these subjects both relatable and interesting. My method of tutoring starts by ensuring the student has an adequate understanding of the problem and any assumptions. I want students to understand the "why" behind their work, not merely "how" to calculate correct answers.

At Notre Dame, I tutored engineering students one-on-one. More recently, I mentored middle-school students in a competitive STEM program. I am interested in tutoring both foundational subjects (such as Algebra, Calculus, and Physics) and the following advanced topics in aerospace engineering.

- Introduction to Aeronautics

- Fundamentals of Aerodynamics

- Fluid Mechanics

- Compressible Aerodynamics

- Orbital Mechanics (Astrodynamics)

- Engineering Computing (Programming)

- Numerical Methods

- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

- Aircraft Design

- Flight Test Engineering ($100/hour)

- Hypersonic Aerothermodynamics ($100/hour)
