About Me

I was born in Miami, Florida, and I moved to New Jersey when I was 15 years old. I currently live in New Jersey and I am a graduate student at University of Delaware, pursuing a master's degree in mathematics. I love to teach and I plan on pursuing a PhD in Math Education to make a significant impact on the way in which we teach and learn math in the United States. I have been a math tutor since 2008 and I have been teaching since 2011. One of my greatest passions is helping students understand math who seem to struggle learning it or students who believe that they hate math. My favorite subjects in mathematics include calculus, differential equations, algebra, geometry, and topology. I hope to one day be a professor in a university where I may teach some variety of these math subjects.

I also play beach volleyball at a pretty intense level. I have been playing volleyball since I was 9 years old. I currently play GAV tournaments every weekend during the summer, and I normally train hard to attempt to qualify for certain professional beach volleyball tournaments. (I have not yet been able to qualify for a pro tournament, but it will remain one of my goals until I reach it or until I cannot play volleyball anymore...) You can find my recent volleyball activity and records here.

In addition to playing volleyball, I also sing and play the keyboards. I have been singing since I was very young and I have been playing the keyboards since I was 9 years old. I played in bands all around Florida since I was 12 years old. I played in a few bands in New Jersey, but none of which gained state-wide fame. Currently I write my own orginial music and my father helps me to produce my songs. I have one CD so far, and I imagine it will be sometime before I produce a second CD since graduate life and volleyball take up most of my time. Thanks for visiting my website!
