My ventures in business and freelance tutoring began in 2011, when I began a Spanish and English language and international business etiquette tutoring and consulting service in 2011. Moreover, I have taught, researched, and collaborated with publications while at and the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University in the fields of Linguistics, Sports Management, and Sports Psychology.

I also treasure one on one and small group learning environments. With that in mind, I work to provide individualized learning environments that meet my students needs, and help them grow in their knowledge about a concept.
