Hello! I am a traveler, public health researcher, athlete and educator excited to teach your student on any of the following topics: chemistry, public health, medical anthropology, introductory weight lifting and exercise, and the daunting but exciting journey through the college application process!
I have two degrees, one in chemistry and the other in medical anthropology (Feel free to ask me what medical anthropology is!!). I currently do public health research at a university, studying infectious diseases and health policy in the US.
I have two kittens (Gracie & Gooseberry), I love to bake, and teaching is both my hobby and passion!Reseñas
