Frequently asked questions
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Teaching has been my longest profession. I began as a math tutor in middle school; in high school I continued tutoring math and also expanded to tutoring science, history, and writing; I also became a “Teen Trend Setter” in high school, teaching elementary school students how to read; throughout my higher education I have served as a teacher through various official and unofficial roles, including serving as a teaching assistant for eight courses (including biochemistry, biophysical thermodynamics, general chemistry, and chemistry lab) and performing chemistry demonstrations for elementary, middle, and high school students. At Caltech I received an outstanding TA award for my work as the biochemistry head TA.
