About Me

I graduated from Wesleyan University as a double major in Film Studies and History. I first began tutoring as part of Wesleyan's Writing Workshop where I helped students on a range of assignments, from small academic papers to a PhD dissertation in ethnomusicology. Since graduation, I have traveled extensively in North Africa, the Middle East and Central America, and I have worked in law and education. I currently teach Film Production at a public arts high school and freelance as a filmmaker and writer. In my spare time, I play beach volleyball and enjoy cooking, gardening and reading.

Q&A with Ruby

Knowledge is more than just memorization of dates and facts. I believe that to truly learn and retain information, students need to have the freedom to ask questions and respectfully push back about some answers. Learning is about understanding why, not just what and when, and I firmly support discussions of the material in order to create a long-lasting knowledge of the subject.
