Fun Facts

I am a native of Massachusetts, have a Bichon Yorkie named Lulu from France, and a fabulous husband from Ireland. I earned my master's degree (toxicology) in the Baja, looking at heavy metal loads in sea turtles. I love the sciences and math, as well as language and arts. I enjoy working with students to achieve their goals and often work with the same students for years!

About Me

I am a Pharm D from Howard University who always comes back to working in education out of a true love for it! I think this stems from having some amazing teachers throughout my life who instilled in me a sense of always paying it forward in life. I speak Spanish and some French and am very dedicated to my students, constantly searching out resources and different manners that can embellish our learning time together.

Anatomy and Physiology, and Biochemistry, and tutored many different subjects for years. I earned my Pharm D from Howard University and also wrote medical and pharmacology-based articles for various companies.

Approach

I am very dedicated and resourceful when it comes to working with students. I understand that individuals learn at different rates and in different manners. I am always thinking about different ways to approach problems according to the student that I am working with and believe strongly in good communication, observation, and effective listening to make the educational experience as rewarding and meaningful as possible.
