My goal as an educator is to set my students up for success. I try to address the individual needs of my students and cater to their different learning styles. I am genuinely invested in helping them meet their goals. I have developed a flexible teaching style that is designed to develop critical thinking in conjunction with course content. In addition, I train students to think broadly and encourage students to identify multidisciplinary approaches to solving problems.

In addition to over 15 years of college teaching experience, I also possess rich, relevant, academic credentials, having achieved a Ph.D. from Washington State University. I also hold a Bachelor of Science in Zoology from the University of California Santa Barbara, and I possess a wide variety of wet lab and computing skills, which allows me to design coursework and exercises for practical and conceptual learners.

I am truly passionate about education and want to help students obtain their academic goals. I am available to tutor students across a broad range of STEM subjects.
