I base my teaching on the skill level of the individual. I have worked in my local community providing tech help, so I am used to working with people of varying skill levels and technical understanding. I work best with middle school to high school and early college students who have a goal or project in mind, that I can help them work towards in a step by step process. I believe having a goal to build towards is really important for learning, as it allows us to build a foundation of understanding and a plan to achieve our goal.
I just recently graduated from Santa Clara University with my Bachelors in Computer Science & Engineering. I have completed many school and personal projects in Python, C, C++, and Java. I first started programming as a sophomore in high school and worked as a CS tutor during my senior year. I also have worked with a few kids outside of school teaching the basics of computer programming.

• Formed good relationships with customers by being friendly, informative, and knowledgeable
PROJECTS:
Basil Bot (SCU Senior Design Project) – Python
• Implemented computer vision program (using OpenCV) to detect basil leaves in an image as measured accuracy of detection by finding the approximate center of each leaf
• Developed an API to find a leaf’s center from an image and convert the coordinates to real world points with the goal of autonomously picking and placing leaves on a production line
• Created the robot with a multidisciplinary team of Software and Mechanical Engineers
Peer to Peer File Sync App – C
• Built a peer to peer file syncing command line application that synced specific files between a list of peers by using a TCP connection and socket programming concepts in C
• Worked with a team to design, diagram, and implement the project from the ground up
• Improved team communication and debugging skills after many late nights spent on fixing bugs
Autocomplete Text Editor – Python
• Building a basic text editor with autocomplete suggestions
• Using Google n-gram’s top 10,000 common words to offer word suggestions as the user types
Eigenvector Graphing Project – Python
• Designed a GUI based python program to visualize a Predator/Prey relationship that dynamically constructed a graph by using eigenvectors and given eigenvalues.
