Welcome! I believe math doesn’t have to be about memorization or stress; it can be clear, flexible, even playful. For the past 10+ years, I've helped students tackle SAT, ACT, and high school math with confidence.I work 1-on-1 with students to break problems down clearly, build trust, and turn confusion into clarity.I'm a Columbia-trained computer scientist, former Wall Street analyst, and alumnus of a nationally ranked high school math team from Vestavia Hills, AL. More important than the credentials, though, is my goal: helping each student feel less pressure and more possibility when they sit down with math.
