"Hi, I'm Alex - I help students build the confidence and problem-solving skills to master challenging technical subjects.

I hold a Master's degree in Applied Physics and dual Bachelor's degrees in Math and Physics from UNC Charlotte. Since graduating, I've worked as a data engineer at a digital marketing agency, building production data pipelines and internal tools, and previously developed AI prototypes for early stage startups. This real-world experience helps me show students how these concepts apply beyond the classroom.

My approach focuses on building long-term understanding rather than just getting through the next assignment. I help you break down complex problems into manageable pieces, understand the underlying principles, and develop the analytical skills to tackle new challenges independently.

If you're working through a challenging course, returning to school, or trying to make a career shift, I'd love to support you. I create a supportive learning environment where you can ask questions, experiment, and learn without judgment. My goal is for you to walk away with not just the right answers, but with genuine confidence in your ability to solve problems on your own." less...
