Fun Facts
I like to do a lot of arts and crafts, but most of all I love to embroider! I grew up in Colorado, and I don't ever plan on leaving. I'm not super outdoorsy, but I have been trying to go to the gym now so I can get better at hiking all the beautiful trails here
About Me
I got my bachelor of science in psychology from the University of Colorado Denver in 2015. I was on the Dean's list for 6 semesters, and ever since I graduated I have been doing research at University of Colorado hospital. I've also been using my time off from school to study for the dental admission test and prepare my application for dental school.
Experience
During college, I worked for three semesters as a General Chemistry II TA. This gave me the opportunity to tutor a variety of students from all walks of life. It also gave me experience in tutoring students who are very frustrated and confused by a subject, since General Chemistry II is largely regarded as a "weed out" class that requires a great deal of time and energy to pass.
Approach
Instead of giving students answers, I like to work out problems sequentially by starting with very simple questions and applying the knowledge from those questions to subsequent questions of greater difficulty. I strive to promote a deep understanding of the material, because then students can apply their knowledge to a variety of different situations!
