Fun Facts

Despite having an accounting degree and a love for mathematics, if it was possible, I would’ve been a dancer. It was a dream of mine to be a background dancer for Janet Jackson.

About Me

I am currently preparing for the LSAT exam, hoping to get into ASU’s law school. My ultimate goal is to earn an interdisciplinary Ph.D in Statistics, Economics and Psychology at ASU and develop a new tax credit to stimulate successful S.T.E.M. performance in US schools.

Experience

While working on my associates degree in mathematics, I had the opportunity to tutor elementary, middle and high school, and college students weekly in mathematics. I love helping people get over their fear of numbers and watching their math confidence shoot through the roof!

Approach

Visual explanations and practical application have always helped me grasp concepts. In my experience as a tutor, I have found that focusing on conceptual understanding versus formulaic memorization as helped students retain information and find solutions faster. I also look for gaps in understanding instead of reteaching an entire topic. Most of the time there are minor disconnects that when addressed, fill in large holes of misunderstandings.
