"I received my Bachelor’s degree from Emerson College in 2015, and hold a Master’s degree in Fine Arts from Columbia University, which I graduated from in 2025.

During my second year at Columbia, I tutored two to three undergraduate students a week from the department of English and Comparative Literature. In our sessions, I supported them in developing strong essays, analyzing literature, and writing compelling thesis statements.
