Where do you attend school and what activities are you involved in?

I am currently a rising freshman at George Mason University, studying Finance and Computer Science. In high school, I was mainly a part of Chantilly High School's Model UN and DECA teams, along with being in the Math Honor Society.

What have your teaching opportunities been outside of Fairfax Collegiate?

I have tutored math for Math Honor Society for the second half of high school, as well as teaching cultural practices during St. Timothy's Vacation Bible School and Conquest.

What sort of experience have you had in the subject you’ll be teaching this summer?

During high school, I have taken Calculus, and at GMU I plan to take Statistics and Macroeconomics.

What excites you about teaching and working with students?

I am excited to help the next generation of students thrive with the skills we teach at Fairfax Collegiate. Spreading the techniques and concepts I have learned throughout my life with younger students is a way for me to help my community and give back to the people who have helped me succeed.

Outside of work, what are some hobbies you enjoy?

I enjoy working out, spending time with my friends and family, and playing a variety of sports including cricket, football, soccer, basketball, and pickleball.
