Abby graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) with a B.S. in Psychobiology.
Abby is fascinated by how people learn and what makes certain concepts click, and she believes that effective tutoring goes beyond mastering material. She tailors her approach to each student and helps them identify their superpowers and develop greater confidence and independence.
Outside the classroom, she works and volunteers as an EMT and enjoys hiking, listening to music, and sending postcards. Having played lacrosse throughout high school and college, she has learned the importance of time management and balancing priorities; skills she brings to helping students succeed both in the classroom and their extracurricular endeavors.
During her time at UCLA, she also co-founded and hosted a radio show exploring mental health, student well-being, and topics like neurodivergence. She brings that same curiosity about how people think and learn to her tutoring, helping students develop strategies that work for them.
