I am an Honours Biochemistry student at the University of Ottawa with a lifelong passion for science and education. As a former teacher’s assistant, I gained hands-on experience simplifying complex topics and adapting my communication style to meet the unique needs of each student. I specialize in supporting students with ADHD by applying strategies I developed through my own experience studying STEM with ADHD, helping them learn in ways that work with their differences rather than against them. I believe in making topics not just understandable, but genuinely exciting and curiosity-sparking. My goal is to create engaging, accessible learning experiences through curiosity-driven explanations and creative strategies that help students connect with the material and develop effective learning techniques they can carry forward throughout their academic journeys. In my personal time, I enjoy participating in undergraduate research competitions such as SCINAPSE, and I foster a love for reading ranging from mythology and science fiction to the latest scientific papers in chemistry.

Teacher's Assistant (high school): helped prepare lessons, presented lessons, worked individually with struggling students, prepared and presented test reviews, assisted and instructed substitute teachers, reviewed and changed class arrangement and learning tactics to better serve students.
