Bio

I am a perfectionist at the things I love doing. I find happiness in improving myself and others, diving into projects, and I love a good challenge.

I believe education is priceless and is one of the greatest impacts I can make. I do my best to adapt to the student's learning style, and I look to teach/learn in a fun way. I tend to analyse my academics and break down what is required. I am a valuable asset for someone who needs support.
