...I attained my B.S. in physics and mathematics from the University of Mississippi, graduating summa cum laude. In addition to taking 4 classes on calculus and analytical geometry, I also took a proof-based calculus class. Teaching my students the foundations of these proofs better helps their understanding of course material. (read more)
...I also did my Master's Degree at Stony Brook University in Applied Mathematics & Statistics. I have four years of experience serving as a Teaching Assistant at Stony Brook University, as well as five years of experience tutoring both high school and middle school students. There is nothing I'm more dedicated to than helping my students succeed. (read more)
...In middle school and high school, I took every honors math class (algebra, geometry, trigonometry, precalculus, calculus). I got a 5 on the AP Calculus BC exam. In college, I took both multivariable and vector calculus, before focusing on more theoretical areas; mainly abstract algebra and topology. I am now specializing in Operations Research as part of a PhD in Applied Mathematics. (read more)
...I believe that chess builds character and this is the message I want to convey to my students. My long experience in Physics (Ph.D. Syracuse University) and as a software engineer (Standard and Poor's, Intercontinental Exchange, Bank Of America), and my passion for Mathematics and Chess, would not have been possible without a deep understanding in Logic.
