About me

I am currently a faculty member at Harvard College, where I teach writing courses for undergraduate and graduate students. I completed my Ph.D. in English at Princeton University in 2021. I have been working as a tutor with Ivy Bound for almost ten years now. After benefitting from tutoring myself as a high school student, I was accepted into and enrolled in my top choice college, Colby College, where I graduated as salutatorian and with majors in English and sociology. I have tutored over 50 students, and among these, ESL students and students with learning disabilities. I understand firsthand the role that strong academics and standardized test preparation play in college and graduate school admissions, and I am eager to share this knowledge with your student.
