I’m studying Operations Research and Financial Engineering at Princeton, hoping to begin my professional career in finance. In school, math has always been my favorite subject, and I’ve previously tutored peers and students across many levels of math, covering all math through all calculus, statistics, physics I and II, micro/macroeconomics, and computer science. From building basic skills to working through tough homework, what I enjoy most about tutoring is the moment a concept finally clicks. Seeing kids gain confidence and succeed at questions they had previously struggled with is the most rewarding part of teaching for me.

Outside the classroom, I love sports. I’ve played baseball my whole life, now being a part of Princeton’s club baseball team. I’m also a big Formula 1 fan and enjoy the technology behind the sport. On any given fall weekend, you’ll likely find me watching football as a huge college football and NFL fan.
