Experience
My undergraduate degree is in literature from Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. My areas of concentration include comparative literature, communications, and modern fiction. I have an extensive corporate experience in marketing and sales across several industries, including television programming, distribution, hospitality, and retail. My experiences in management have cultivated a deep appreciation for performance improvement, focusing on motivation, sound strategy, practice, and teaching. I am also fortunate to be blessed with an exceptionally strong aptitude for math. I have used this talent to conduct business analysis, tutor kids in middle and high school, and solve problems just for fun. I can tutor many subjects, including Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Middle School Math, Essay Editing, Literature, Grammar and Mechanics, Social Studies, American History, European History, College Essays, and Writing. I can also help students prepare for standardized tests like the PSAT, ACT, and SAT. As the parent of a teenage girl and boy, I have perspective on the importance of providing encouragement and demonstrating patience when facing a tough high school assignment or test. I live in Harrison, New York. In my spare time I like to read, watch movies, listen to music, play and watch sports, and explore the latest technology.
