Bio

I'm a Ph.D. in Biology (specializing in Immunology and Genetics) with a M.S. in Biological Anthropology and a B.A. in Biology and Neuroscience and Behavior. I've previously taught at universities for 6 years and have been tutoring high school and college students for over 15 years. I currently work as a scientist at the NIH where I work on generating new mouse strains and preserving old ones!

I'm a Ph.D. in Biology (specializing in Immunology and Genetics) with a M.S. in Biological Anthropology and a B.A. in Biology and Neuroscience and Behavior. I've previously taught at universities for 6 years and have been tutoring high school and college students for over 15 years. I currently work as a scientist at the NIH where I work on generating new mouse strains and preserving old ones!

My fields of expertise include Immunology, Molecular and Microbiology, Genetics, Anatomy and Physiology, Neuroscience, Ecology, Psychology, Anthropology, Skeletal Biology, and Evolution. I also have a comprehensive background in high school courses including Honors/AP Biology.

I am also skilled at editing and shaping scientific papers and writing, having published multiple papers in peer-reviewed high impact journals. I have sat on multiple M.S. and Ph.D. committees and can help you optimize your thesis, dissertation, or other manuscript.

Let me help you improve your test scores, gain a greater understanding of science, and develop your science writing skills!

Patient and professional

Very patient and good at explaining core principles of evolution, ecology, and cell biology. Also has actual experience in applied biology. Would recommend to friends.

Nian, 1 lesson with Katina

Katina knows anatomy and physiology like the back of her hand.

Katina provided me with several study strategies for retaining the information I was learning, such as making flash cards and writing little short descriptions of words and meanings. Also, Katina made me do the work which resulted in me thinking the questions through and problem solving on my own. Katina breaks down anatomy and physiology to a level that is understandable and easy to grasp. Thanks Katina, you're the best.
