Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math

New York City

  • I worked as a Software Engineer for two years before returning to education!
  • I'm currently writing a novel!
  • I'm a twin!

I'm an instructor specializing in coding, robotics, and game design. I also love teaching arts and writing, and I believe my experience in STEM has taught me how to build student confidence to explore subjects they might otherwise be intimidated by. I have experience working with all ages of students, and my teaching style is about encouraging creativity and cultivating a passion for learning.
