Fun Facts
I love the outdoors and music. I am a DJ for University of Portland's radio station, KDUP. And I am constantly on the look out for new music. I also try and get outdoors at least once a week, and I have planned several backpacking trips for this upcoming summer. I also love skiing and if it's snowing, I am up at the mountain.
About Me
I am a sophomore Biology major and a Women and Gender Studies minor at the University of Portland. I am in the Honor's program and have been on the Dean's list for two years now. After graduating I plan on either going to school to become a Certified Midwife, or going to medical school to become an OBGYN.
Experience
In high school I was in the National Honor Society and so I helped tutor students once a week in whatever subject they needed help in. My senior year of high school I also volunteered at a local elementary school in their art class. I am also currently a tutor employed by the University of Portland for introduction Biology courses.
Approach
I believe that to succeed means something different for each person and I strive to help other students find excitement about learning. I also think that each student has to find their own motivation, but I am here to encourage them to do their best and to help them understand that they are capable and can achieve their goals. I strive to help students to become active learners.

Reading Comprehension Tutoring
While reading comprehension is never specifically tested or taught as a class in school, if someone doesn't have reading comprehension then, at least in college, they wouldn't pass their classes. I have read up to 12 books in one semester, not including online readings. These readings are consistently quizzed and tested on. I am qualified for this as I have gotten almost all A's in all of my college courses, and most of this material is learned off assigned weekly readings.
