I'm a former Math Olympiad competitor. I got a double degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from MIT in May 2022.

I've also worked as tutor for the MIT EECS department and the MIT Math department.

Ms. Luz is a wonderful tutor; she comes to the sessions prepared with study examples based on my areas of need. She is also flexible if there is a particular study problem that I am having. I recommend her.
