Hey! I'm a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford developing new structural refinement strategies and exploring next generation methods of ribosome design. I just completed my Ph.D. at NYU, where I described new ways to inhibit protein-protein interactions. Earlier, I earned my B.A. from Harvard in Chemistry, though while I was there I spent a great deal of time on mathematics and physics as well. My undergraduate thesis was mostly in medicinal chemistry and total synthesis. I tutored through Har... Read more

Learning to code makes you a modern day wizard. I've been programming since I was about 10 years old and the thing I still remember is how much fun it was to make magic happen on a computer screen. I see people open up so much creative possibility for themselves by learning to speak a computer's language. I believe that coding is an art and a science. It's important to learn the technical aspects so you can make things happen, but it's also important to understand it as a creative act. Ea... Read more

Striving for an top-notch test score, or mastering math and physics classes, can be daunting and frustrating. Sometimes a teacher doesn’t explain the material well, or abstract concepts don’t quite click. That’s why I bring patience and a positive attitude to my tutoring. I use a technique of offering multiple explanations for each concept, rooting my explanations in content the student already understands. I like to build a rapport with students in early lessons by learning their interests a... Read more

Writing is a practice. Like riding a bike, the more you do it the better you get. I help clients sharpen their ability to discern what is useful and what can be discarded. The result of patience and refinement is skill—the increased ability to hear, see and edit one’s own work, so goals can be met with minimal anxiety and maximum efficiency. I offer writing support for research, theses, job application letters, essays, fiction and nonfiction book projects, creative writing, poetry, and on... Read more
