A good mentor can make all the difference in mastering your academics. Here’s what my former students have to say about working with me.

Julie was easily the best teaching assistant I have ever had. She was accessible, knowledgeable, and had a great way of breaking tough problems into smaller, manageable parts. Her approachable and nonjudgmental attitude made it easy to ask questions without feeling embarrassed.
