View Profile

I'm currently double majoring in Physics and Dance at Oberlin College, with a focus on biomechanics and the intersection of software and movement in dance training and performance. While I'm not actively tutoring at the moment, I previously led sessions across a wide range of subjects during the COVID-19 pandemicβ€”including Spanish, literature, history, and Calculus. I’ve worked with both U.S. and CBSE curricula and even developed some original lesson plans along the way. If you're into topics like Labanotation (kinetography), dance analysis, physics of movement, prosthetics, or machine learning, we’d probably have a lot to talk about.
