A Little Bit About Me...

I am a Corporate Finance professional whose true passion is math education. I have a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics and a Masters in Business Administration - Finance. In college, I worked as a Teacher's Assistant at my old high school and as a private math tutor for 1-2 years in subjects ranging from algebra to calculus.

I truly enjoy teaching and working with all levels of math learners. I was blessed to have great math teachers in my education that transferred their passion for the subject on to me.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching students to discover the answers to questions and problems that otherwise eluded them. I am a firm believer in student-centered learning, meaning the students are given the opportunity to research, discover, and progress through various techniques. Providing the appropriate learning environment is essential for a student to fully experience their potential.

More About This Tutor...

I love teaching. I like to help people gain an understanding of a concept and find satisfaction when I can tell that they understand and get it. I like to ask questions when I teach because I feel that the best way to learn something is to understand why and how it is done before doing so. I would love to use my experience in my career to help students meet their potential.
I graduated from Indiana University with a dual degree in Accounting and Finance. After graduation, I moved to California and worked for PricewaterhouseCoopers in San Jose. There I gained extensive technical accounting expereience in numerous different business areas. Currently I am taking the CPA exam to further develop my accounting background. In college, I tutored local high school students in math.
