What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply mathematical modeling and data analysis to improve STEM education, collaborate with educators, and drive measurable student outcomes.

I am a motivated Mathematics and Science professional with experience teaching at the high-school level and supporting undergraduate instruction. I combine classroom practice with academic research to deliver measurable student outcomes and foster engagement.

As a high school teacher, I designed interactive lesson plans, mentored students for competitions, and improved student performance by 20% through targeted tutoring and innovative strategies. I also guided students to first place in the California State Mathematics and Science Fair.

In my work as a teaching assistant and research contributor, I supported faculty research, conducted statistical data analysis, and streamlined laboratory experiments to improve efficiency and engagement. I published research on mathematical modeling in environmental science.

I am passionate about applying mathematical modeling, data analysis, and educational technology to advance STEM learning. I prioritize collaborative problem-solving, clear communication, and continuous professional development to drive academic excellence.
