About Me

SUBJECTS

EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

I believe that with the right teacher a spark of interest can be started with any student. I also believe the most effective teachers are the ones who really care about their students success and helping them move alone.

When you combine a great passion for learning with a love of teaching and the students being taught great things can be accomplished.

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND

I graduated from my high school in the top 10% of my class. I then continued with my education by earning a Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of Washington. I also received a Ph.D. in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology in 2013 at Ohio State University.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I tutored mostly elementary aged students on a regular basis all through high school. During my undergraduate work I was a tutor for the K-9 program which specifically worked with Native American students K-12 in Provo, UT. Between my undergraduate work and graduate work I was a substitute paraeducator for the Kent School District in Washington State where I worked one on one with kids with special needs and English as a second language.

EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

I am learning to play the violin and am taking lessons one time per week. I also volunteer with the Special Olympics whenever possible in my area. I’m very involved in my church and church programs (and have taught religion classes for over 10 years).

STANDARDIZED TEST RESULTS

I received a composite score of 31 on my ACT exam.
