Experience
5+ years experience scientific computing working for defense contractor and consulting. 3+ years machine learning work. Resume available upon request. Hired by UNC-Chapel Hill to tutor undergraduates in courses ranging from algebra through calculus 3. Hired by tutor.com to tutor mathematics ranging through calculus. Privately tutored Algebra 2, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus (1,2,3), Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, and Real Analysis. Reached 170k people by answering questions on StackOverflow. My tutoring style emphasizes understanding over simply solving test/homework questions. When a student understands the material, the process (getting the answers) becomes trivial. Moreover, the student often times can come up with their own unique processes. Relevant academic scores: 800 Math SAT A’s in Analysis I/II, Topology, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, Mathematical Modeling for the Physical Sciences, Long-term Actuarial Modeling, Stochastic Models in Operations Research, Mathematical Models for Decision Making
