Cornell Physics & Creative Writing Grad. Pre-PhD Passionate About Education.
About
I can tutor every subject apart from foreign languages. Cornell Physics & Creative Writing graduate. I was educated in economics directly under former Chief Economist of the World Bank, Kaushik C. Basu & trained to write under MacArthur Genius Fellow Alice Fulton.
I have published many technical works, articles & even poetry.
I currently spend my time as an independent consultant to hedge funds (investment decisions, trading strategies) as well as participating in international business deals with an advisor to the EU's Executive Branch (corporate strategy, investor presentations, company evaluations, financing, etc.). In the process of applying to PhD programs.
I spent time in Silicon Valley exploring the machine learning space.
Though I have an established professional career, I love teaching. Some day, when I eventually retire from business, I intend to become a University Professor back at Cornell University.

I simply adore everything about teaching for the same reasons Richard Feynman did!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
It depends on each & every individual client — every person is different, hence every process, too, must be modified.
The results, however, tend to always be extraordinary.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Cornell University: Theoretical Physics & English (Writing)
Yale University (online): Finance, business, law, economics
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
It depends on each & every client.
How did you get started teaching?
I've been tutoring for 8 years. I started the way Richard Feynman did — I found explaining the topics to others helped reinforce the ideas within myself.
Now, it's a matter of giving back.
What types of students have you worked with?
The age ranges and needs of my clients have varied drastically over the years. From students in deep need of help to gifted stars already headed for the Ivy League.
They all found value in my services.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
I published some of my many poems!
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Find the perfect fit.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Ask all the questions they need. No need to think carefully before asking me a question; I'm an open book!
