About
I am a recent graduate from San Francisco State University, having earned my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with minors in Video Game Studies and Computing Applications. I am currently studying for my Master of Engineering in Embedded Systems at the University of Maryland, College Park. I have extensive experience working as a mentor, instructor, and teaching assistant going as far back as 2018. Most recently, I worked as a TA for an upper division operating systems class. I have also held several internship positions in software development. My goal is to ensure that students feel confident in their abilities regardless of if this is their first time learning how to code or if they are dealing with CS theory and algorithms for the first time.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My first question is to ask about the student's goals. Are they taking a class, or is this a personal endevour? I then establish a baseline of their knowledge.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have worked with dozens of undergraduates at San Francisco State University as a mentor for an introductory computer science class. Most recently, I worked as an intern at a startup tech company based in Tel Aviv.
Prior to this, I worked as an instructor at iD Tech Camps and a coach at TreoBytes.
