Fun Facts

I am a complete literature and photography NERD! I can talk about cameras all day; darkroom techniques, the chemical concentration on Sprint Developers vs. D76; large format, medium format, and 35mm cameras. I have no favorite writer--the list is too long. I can read Virginia Woolf repeatedly; Djuna Barnes is my hero. I absolutely adore James Baldwin's writing style. Jeanette Winterson saved my literary life. I can go on, seriously. I seriously dork out to programming language--Python!

About Me

I've been on the Dean's List since 2012 of Hunter College and work for Hunter College and City College's Photography Department. I was the Administrative Assistant for a Commercial Insurance Consultant Agency for 2 years. I plan on saving enough to attend Cambridge for my Ph.d. if I do not get funding for it.

Experience

I have been tutoring since high school at Kumon Learning Centers. I worked for the queens-college">Queens College Writing Center for three years. I work as assistant to the head of the Hunter College Writing Center, and was a private tutor for the last two years.

Approach

I fell in love with English at a young age. Beginning from sixth grade, I read everything I could find at the library (and luckily for me, I lived two houses down from one). In high school, I was lucky enough to have a teacher nurture this love, and she put me in AP English. I was not a math star as I was so much in love with Literature, but i learned to be good at it by developing a unique approach--treating it as its own language, rather than trying to translate it into English.
