"I taught in the DISD School district for over a year while I had a mid-career transition to law school, so I can vouch for what methods are helpful or not. I am great at helping unmotivated or focus-challenged students embrace untraditional or tailored study plans for optimum organization and success.

I started my career in the financial sector working in big banking, then transitioning to private equity. I also worked in telecom and software sales for a shorter period. I now work and own businesses in the AEC area working specifically with Urban Planning, Historic Preservation, Land Use, and Real Estate Development and Financing.

English is my first language. Writing business and court documents for a living is part of my every day existence. Also, as a life-long student, I have written countless papers for a variety of undergraduate and graduate classes. In business, I regularly must prepare research, white papers, proposals, etc. I can help you in every stage of completing work from starting an outline to finishing touches for a top grade. I know what professors look for and able to point out areas to strengthen for the top grade. I'm also an expert at helping you pull together a mess on a short deadline as a student who has either procrastinated till the last minute or has had to balance full time work/travel with coursework.

My academic background is in Historic Preservation. Museum Studies, AEC Business, and Planning & Land Use. From Art history to Architecture theory, I can help. If your coursework exceeds my experience, I will tell you upfront. Helping a student blend academic and real life working experience has been helpful in tutoring in difficult subjects. I live very close to SMU and typically available for on-call, last minute emergency help." less...
