Sparking and nurturing an interest for science in students is eternally rewarding and memorable!
Chemistry is often referred to as "the central science". It has great importance in every facet of our society. I believe that not just the content knowledge within chemistry, but the process itself of learning it, has the ability to expand minds, enrich lives, and create citizens equipped with critical thinking and analytical skills to better handle the challenges of an increasingly complex world. I have a deep passion for teaching, learning, and guiding people to become the best versions of themselves.
I am an avid gamer and self-described nerd.
