Brief Biographical Sketch:

I am a senior attending MIT majoring in biology and chemistry. I enjoy learning about human physiology, biochemistry, and physical chemistry. I aspire to become a physician while conducting biomedical research.

I have lived in many parts of the world in my childhood, including parts of Japan and China, New York, Pennsylvania, and finally, Kentucky.

I am always fascinated by the intricate ways in which biology and chemistry are intertwined. I have greatly enjoyed teaching MathCounts skills to middle school students and I love helping others understand new things. My other hobbies include running, violin, and listening to music.

Taking AP Chemistry in my sophomore year of high school was one of the most important turning points for me. I believe that a knowledge of chemistry is an essential to our lives, no matter if you plan to study engineering or economics. With chemistry, we can analyze and make sense of the tangible world. Some people may view chemistry as a difficult subject; I promise you, chemistry is governed by a set of basic principles that have wide applicability. I look forward to teaching an introduction to the wonderful study of chemistry, or "huàxué," the study of change. I hope this class changes your perspectives toward the world.
