Hobbies
I love teaching! I began teaching writing skills as an undergrad at Princeton University and have continued to teach and tutor in the years since, teaching EFL abroad as a recent college grad and tutoring chemistry as a pre-medical post-bacc student. I love both the humanities and the sciences, having earned my BA in Comparative Literature at Princeton, and most recently having completed my pre-medical studies at Rutgers. I am currently applying to medical school and am excited to incorporate teaching and tutoring into my glide year. In my free time, I love being outside, dabbling in photography, and spending time with my three kids, ages 7, 5 and 3.
