I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Colorado (dual major Chemistry and Biochemistry; recipient of Pfizer's excellence in undergraduate research award), and went on to complete my Ph.D. in organic chemistry from the University of Michigan (recipient of the Hoffmann-LaRoche award in Organic Chemistry). I have worked in the pharmaceutical industry developing novel synthetic methods to advance drug discovery leading to 20+ publications and patents. Ever since my grad school days I have enjoyed teaching organic chemistry. I love watching my students have that "lightbulb" moment when everything makes sense.
The fundamentals of organic chemistry haven't changed in 75 years; however, the application of those fundamentals can lead to amazing novel breakthroughs in science. I simplify complex subject material so that you have the tools to apply toward increasingly challenging questions. Whether your road leads to novel discoveries, medical innovations, or just fulfilling a requirement to move on to your true passion, I can provide you with the foundation to achieve your goals.
