Fun Facts

At cleveland-state-university">Cleveland State University, I am the current President of the CSU Rowing team and I have raced in events all over the Eastern side of the United States. Rowing is a fantastic exercise and the views of Cleveland from the Cuyahoga river are surreal. It has been a great way to make long lasting friendships along the way!

About Me

In 2008, I received a Bachelor’s degree from The Ohio State University with a major in Chemistry. After taking a year off to determine a sound path in life, I joined the Bioanalytical-Clinical Chemistry doctoral program at cleveland-state-university">Cleveland State University with a Specialization in Molecular Medicine in 2009. One day it is a great interest of mine to become a post doctoral fellow in Clinical Chemistry and to become an American Board certified Clinical Chemist.

Over the past three years I have gained considerable experience in teaching and cleveland">tutoring chemistry and molecular biology. These past ten semesters I have taught as a teaching assistant in laboratories of College, General, and Organic Chemistry courses at cleveland-state-university">Cleveland State University. Also in the summer of 2012, I was hired as a Part-Time Instructor at carroll-university">John carroll-university">Carroll University to teach and supervise their General Chemistry Lab I&II program. While teaching and cleveland">tutoring for all these courses, I heightened my abilities on reaching out to students to help them understand a diverse and difficult subject that I have came to revere.

These opportunities have ignited a passion to excel at presenting difficult topics to anyone I have the privilege of cleveland">tutoring. I know personally that Chemistry is a rough subject to study and to do well in. However my understanding of my own mistakes and mistakes commonly made by my students, I am able to have a study attack plan prepared for when it comes to the more challenging sections.
