"As a former teacher with a degree in Physics and Theater Education, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it is when students truly connect with what they’re learning. I draw on my background in creating stories to make lessons feel like narratives—easy to follow, engaging, and memorable. Complex concepts stop feeling abstract when they’re broken down into relatable analogies or everyday situations, and that approach helps students not just memorize information but really understand it. My goal is to create those “lightbulb moments” where everything suddenly clicks, building not only knowledge but also confidence.

In addition to my teaching experience, I’ve also worked extensively in the technology field, where translating complicated systems into practical solutions is part of the job. That experience allows me to give students real-world applications for the subjects they study, showing them how math, science, and problem-solving skills show up in careers and daily life. Students feel less intimidated and more motivated when learning with me, because the lessons feel purposeful, approachable, and relevant. By blending creativity, storytelling, and practical examples, I help students gain the tools they need to succeed in school—and carry those skills with them into the future." less...
