I am an accomplished educator with a unique blend of high-level academic expertise and practical teaching skills. I am also a certified Georgia Educator holding a Ph.D. in Chemistry and a Master of Arts in Teaching Pedagogy.

I specialize in bridging the gap between complex scientific theory and student understanding, using a data-driven approach to help students not only improve their grades but genuinely master the material.


I don`t just teach chemistry concepts; I possess the advanced scientific and mathematical thinking expertise to explain the "why" and "how" behind them. With a background spanning Organic, Physical, and Computational Chemistry, I specialize in guiding students through the most challenging coursework: from High School AP/Honors to College General and Organic Chemistry.

My interdisciplinary background in Computer Science, Mathematics and Physiscs allows me to help students master the often-difficult mathematical foundations required for success in advanced sciences.

Willing to travel: 30 miles

Experience: I bring over a decade of teaching experience across prestigious universities and competitive high schools.
- University Level: As a faculty instructor and fellow at Southern Methodist University and Georgia State University, I taught General Chemistry, supported Organic Chemistry instruction, and led advanced courses in Computational Chemistry and Molecular Dynamics.
- High School Level: I taught High School Chemistry in Gwinnett County, where I successfully doubled student mastery rates and raised district assessment scores using data-driven teaching strategies.
- Interdisciplinary Support: Chemistry is often difficult because of the math involved. Having taught Advanced Calculus and Machine Learning at Michigan State, I am uniquely equipped to help students bridge the gap between scientific concepts and the mathematical logic required to solve them.
