"*** Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Your success is my priority and I look forward to supporting you**

Looking to understand modern CS, AI tools, work with large language models, or code effectively in the age of AI? I help students navigate modern programming from AI-assisted development and prompt engineering to CS fundamentals. Whether you want to build apps using LLM APIs, learn "vibe coding" workflows, or understand when AI tools help versus hurt, I can guide you with clarity and real-world examples.

I've developed my teaching approach over the years, drawing from my own excellent teachers and student feedback. My aim is to help you understand programming and computer science intuitively. I believe asking questions is the best way to learn, and any problem can be solved if explained simply and clearly.

I studied computer science at a competitive university and have over 10 years of software development experience. I currently work as an industry data scientist and have tutored CS for years, helping students of all ages achieve their goals.

One concept I emphasize: even expert programmers make mistakes constantly—especially when working with AI tools. Programming is iterative, and good programmers learn patience and develop skills to navigate this process. Computational thinking and conceptualizing problems before coding become more valuable, not less, when AI is part of your workflow.

I specialize in Python (Scipy, Numpy, Pandas, PyTorch, scikit-learn, Matplotlib), Java, Matlab, and working with LLM APIs and AI development tools. I tutor intro and advanced CS courses, data science, personal/professional projects, and AI-powered development." less...
