Money is the most powerful tool we have to create happy, fulfilling, and meaningful lives. Yet, we grossly unde-rutilize and under-appreciate that tool, and I think I know why. The personal finance space is filled to the brim with 'what' and 'how' information. But people need a why - a meaningful reason to nurture their relationship with money. To that end, I create calm and thoughtful personal finance content that delivers the 'why' alongside the 'what' and the 'how'. I focus on positive money psychology, building breathing room, creating fulfillment, and improving awareness.I also offer workshops to businesses and educational institutions that are customizable to the needs of their people. These can be anything from comprehensive, 101 style sessions to deep-dives on topics like effective budgeting.Finally, I am also building the perfect Android and iOS app that will encourage people to make better financial decisions everyday in a fun and engaging way.

As a peer tutor, I worked with fellow students on Computer Science related coursework, class material, and general questions. My role primarily involved identifying each student's unique learning style and strengths and weaknesses in order to tailor my tutoring technique to him/her.
