Hobbies
I enjoy music, exercise and good grades. My career in optometry is about to begin, and I can't wait to graduate! I come from a big family and like to think of my students as extended family. If you work with me, you will never feel deserted or like you're just a paycheck. If you're struggling in a subject in my area, give me a try! Thank you for your interest, and please ask questions!
