I was born and raised here in the Central Coast of California. Friends and family would describe me as a textbook extrovert - I am happiest when I'm engaging with and learning about others!Â
In school, I took advanced math classes and enjoyed the simple problem-and-solution nature of mathematics in general.
I truly discovered math's potential when I got the experience of working as a math instructor. I enjoyed every bit of it! All of the lightbulb moments I got to see my students have made a lasting impression on me. I became convinced that math was never impossible. It was all about perspective.
When I'm not doing math, I love playing my guitars and ukuleles, riding a rollercoaster, or painting!
I am a former Mathnasium instructor, and I received extensive training from experts during my employment. The focus of my training was how to present math concepts to children in a simple, effective way with a highly personalized approach.
Find fresh perspectives that make previously confusing math concepts make sense to them.
Make each and every student I encounter feel understood, self-confident, and smart, as they very well should!
