Experience
I have 7 years of experience as a professional educator in the field of college outreach to high school students working for a federal educational nonprofit organization. I attend national and regional professional development and trainings annually, specifically pertaining to college admissions trends, public and private college updates, and financial aid. My specialties are expertise in all college applications and processes, personal statement brainstorming and development, college application strategies, college planning, financial aid planing and scholarship searches, career development and planning, study skills, test taking skills, and connections to additional resources. I love working with students. I love their potential and their optimism. I love helping them see the endless possibilities that are at their fingertips. my favorite part about tutoring is setting the student's mind at ease that they are doing everything they possibly can to achieve their professional and academic goals. One can never go wrong by trying your best and following your heart.

Hobbies
I am a creative thinker. This translates into a passion for reading (fiction and nonfiction alike), lifelong learning (I still take a class somewhere nearly every semester on all kinds of subjects), art (viewing and making), exploring, and brainstorming. I love to talk about possibilities and think of creative solutions, whether it's about personal statement topics that would best reflect an individual's unique personality, potential implications of a current event, or fun recipes to make out of what's in the pantry. I have a zeal for new adventures, which is why I enjoy helping students apply for college. I get to help people embark on one of the greatest adventures of their life.
