I'm a California-credentialed educator dedicated to helping students build skills, confidence, and independence through personalized lessons. With eight years of experience teaching English in San Francisco, I specialize in reading and writing support, executive-function coaching, and guiding students through impactful admissions essays. I'm experienced in working with diverse learners, including students with dyslexia and other learning differences.
I hold a B.A. from UC Berkeley and an M.A. in Education from UC Davis. Currently, I live in beautiful Bernal Heights with my husband.
