I am currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Computational Sciences and Engineering at Harvard University, with a focus on applied mathematics and the possibility of continuing on to a PhD. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in physics from Tufts University, where I worked as a teaching assistant for physics and astronomy courses, and I am confident tutoring math and physics at any level, including AP classes.

My passion for teaching began during the COVID-19 lockdowns, when I worked with students struggling with the challenges of remote learning. This strongly shaped my tutoring approach, which is centered on helping students build a solid conceptual foundation: my ultimate goal as a tutor is to empower students to approach difficult problems with confidence, strong intuition, and well-practiced problem-solving skills.

Outside of academics, I enjoy playing music with friends, trying out new recipes, and watching playoff basketball.
