"I am very passionate about helping my students succeed in their specific course skills challenges, while also developing a positive and empowering sense about their academic accomplishments and overall confidence in learning. My philosophy is to first build communication through a sense of trust and empathy with my student, then demystify the topic by simplifying and explaining the needed steps and concepts in a personalized manner as I guide them in working through the technique. While I enjoy helping students at all levels of proficiency, I have refined my tutoring skills especially toward students who are struggling with grasping or learning a stats topic.

I hold a Computer Science BS from Kent State University and an MBA from University of Akron. While at UA, I served as stats/analytics tutor, Assistant Professor of Practice, Business Statistics course coordinator; taught around forty classroom/online courses and helped thousands of students succeed individually.

Please feel free to message for my upcoming availability, specific questions or with project content; I’ll be glad to evaluate and get back to you soon!
