Experience
I've tutored several peer student-athletes in various academic subjects throughout my college career. My expertise is English and writing. I have worked in the writing center tutoring my peers and assisting them with academic papers. In addition, I have privately tutored English Second Language (ESL) peers, grad ESL students, and middle school students in various subjects such as math, science, and french. I've also assisted ESL non-students with a full English Immersion. For this I held private and group tutor sessions shaped to suit the learner's specific goals and needs. I've worked in an elite, independent high school in England as part of the P.E. department all the while aiding various teachers assisting with lessons. I have a wide range of experience. I've taken all the subjects I tutor in as well as more advanced classes in these same subjects. (French, math, english, science, history, computers, etc). Being a D1 student-athlete has built my character, organization skills, dedication, motivation and will.

Hobbies
Coach ESM JV Girls Lacrosse I love to watch sports -- SU football, basketball, lacrosse Lacrosse I've played all my life, all my siblings play as well. I played at FM high school, and went on to play on scholarship with my older sister at Siena College. Soccer was the first sport I really picked up. I played throughout my childhood on travel teams, club, recreational, and school, winning several tournaments and awards. I ran indoor track throughout high school to stay in shape on my off season. I've skied since I started walking, and I picked up snowboarding on the weekends when I was in 2nd grade. Arts and crafts are things I like to do in my free time. Music is my passion. I love all different types. I also really enjoy the outdoors. Nature, camping, and hiking are all over my agenda in the summer time. I love to travel. This past year when I coached and taught abroad in the U.K., I got an amazing opportunity to travel. I not only got to see plenty of The Beatles legacy spots, Wembley Stadium, London, and more of England's finer cities, but I also got to explore all over Europe. I saw Dublin, Galway, Amsterdam, Prague, Paris, Barcelona, Ibiza, Rome, Florence, down the Amalfi Coast -Sorrento, Positano, Pompeii, and Santorini. When I traveled I picked up photography as a hobby. I cannot stop taking pictures now. It is a passion of mine now. I am learning how to cook all different types of foods. I have had to take up this hobby after trying so many different cultural cuisines over my travels. It has become a necessity to know how to make these dishes in order to keep them in my life when I'm not on the road! I love to write. I have always loved poetry, lyrics, reading, writing, etc., and that is why I chose to take it up as a minor in school. I hope and intend to write a book of my own one day. I plan on attending graduate school in the near future to get my Master's degree in TESOL (Teaching of English to Speakers of Other Languages).
