About
I'm a lifelong learner and love to share my passion of exploring the world around us. We can all treat our life as a master class. Let's study together! I am detail oriented and will work with you to find your strengths and improve on weaknesses. We use hands-on experiments and projects to learn, because active learning stays with you. I have a Cell & Molecular Biology degree from UCLA, worked in Molecular Virology lab, PSAT Merit award winner, and taught and tutored for over 10 years. I love kids and teaching.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We first sit down and write down our main goals and target and concerns or areas they feel they need the most improvement. Then we schedule out a learning plan. We do overview and review for first part of session, then learn about a prominent expert, do hands-on project or experiment, and then stay accountable with a independent homework assignment. It's fun to share knowledge and review together in a positive environment.
