View Profile

College sophomore from New York state. Finance, SATs, and college prep are my specialties. Heyo! I'm Joey. I'm from upstate New York and am attending a private four-year university. I love tutoring SAT R&W and college prep (applying, financial aid, admissions essays, choosing the right fit, and more!). I'm a college sophomore, and I'm completing my Associate's and Bachelor's early- one and two whole years early, respectively- with a current 3.9 GPA! I'm majoring in Creative Writing, have participated in National Novel Writing Month every year since 2020, and am currently writing a fiction trilogy - so, yeah, I know my way around words pretty well! Let me know if you need help with that sort of thing, and I'll be happy to do so! I'm also a Certified Master Financial Coach, so if you have any financial questions, feel free to reach out, and I'll point you in the right direction. I enjoy songwriting in my spare time and have even received personal training from some professionals in the music industry, so if you're ever in need of some songwriting advice, I'd love to help you out! I also enjoy playing handball and pickleball :) Last but certainly not least, I am first and foremost a Christian, and I love to read, research, study, discuss, exposit, and exegete the Bible. If you ever want to talk about the Bible or Christianity, or ask a question about either of them, however trivial the talking point may be, I'm more than happy to talk to you about it! Even if you just have a quick question, feel free to DM me - I have a heart to serve and love people, so I'm more than happy to talk to you! :D (Also, if you're reading this far- wow, I'm honored! Way to buck the average LOL.)
