About the Tutor
(she/her) Hi! I'm a high school senior interested in biology, math, psychology, and history. I'm currently an AP Scholar with Honor. In my free time, I enjoy watching Marvel movies and football with my family, and you'll often find me testing my spice tolerance with various foods. Feel free to shoot me a message if you need anything!
