"Hello! Are you looking for guidance on your next STEM subject, the SATs, or fellowship applications? Whether you're learning chemistry for the first time, applying to college, or preparing for quals, I'm here to help you succeed.

With nearly 15 years of experience, including a Ph.D. from MIT, I bring a deep understanding of biology, chemistry, algebra, calculus, and data science, alongside academic writing expertise. My interdisciplinary background in Bioengineering and Chemical Biology from UC Berkeley, combined with my Ph.D. in Computational & Systems Biology, equips me to tutor a wide range of topics, from the SATs to fundamental sciences to complex systems modeling.

Along the way, I've mastered the complexities of academic writing, having gained entry to top colleges, first-authored ten peer-reviewed publications, secured prestigious fellowships like the NDSEG, Fulbright, and HFSP, and received faculty offers from top R1 research universities.

However, my true passion is supporting students at all levels by combining STEM expertise with my background as a relationship coach to offer tailored, holistic support. I've honed my skills through extensive undergraduate teaching experience and certifications in higher-ed teaching, leadership coaching, and relationship coaching.

Working with me, you can expect:

--- Comprehensive Subject Matter Expertise: From challenging science concepts to standardized test prep, I'll break down complex ideas and help you excel.

--- Empathy and Understanding: I’ve faced academia’s challenges, and I’m here to meet you where you are — no judgment, just support.

--- Holistic Support: Beyond subject mastery, I see students as whole people, tailoring my approach to their unique strengths.

--- Practical Guidance: We'll build practical processes you can apply to future studies and academic career development.

I look forward to supporting you on your journey. Contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson!" less...
