"I am a highly qualified educator with a robust academic background in the sciences and engineering, having earned a Master of Science in Bioengineering from Stanford University and a Bachelor of Science in Biophysics from Xavier University. My educational journey has provided me with a deep technical foundation in physics, biology, biochemistry, and math, which I have translated into several years of formal and informal teaching roles. My experience spans across various institutional levels, including serving as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Stanford University for Molecular and Cellular Engineering labs and an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant at Xavier University for both Modern and Introductory Physics labs. In these roles, I was responsible for guiding university students through complex experimental protocols and theoretical applications in a laboratory classroom setting.

Beyond the university classroom, I have extensive experience in one-on-one and small-group instruction. I served as a tutor for the Xavier University Learning Assistance Center for three years, where I helped students master subjects including physics, biology, and Spanish. Additionally, I have a strong commitment to community-based education, having volunteered as a math tutor for 5th-grade students through the Literacy Network of Greater Cincinnati. More recently, in my role as a All Together Recovery, I have facilitated daily group sessions and delivered invited talks on the neurobiology of recovery. My teaching approach focuses on breaking down intricate scientific concepts into manageable, relatable components, ensuring that students of all ages and backgrounds can achieve academic success and professional growth." less...
