Experience
I have been a Orgo 2 study group leader/tutor for six semesters. Because of this job I have weekly worksheets focusing on all orgo 2 concepts, a completed course pack, past exams, and the expertise to predict the topics students will struggle with the most. Here are some comments left by my past students: "He has been super helpful in learning Orgo and motivating us to study" "Alex went above and beyond what his job requires. He made sure to help our group anytime anyone needs help. He was instrumental in helping me to do well in this class." "Alex was an absolutely phenomenal study group leader, I have never had a better study group leader and I honestly do not think I would have been successful in the course with out the help of him and the sense of community he fostered among the study group. I wish I could recommend him to everyone and I really think he should get a raise if possible because he puts so much time and effort into not only preparing for study group but by making worksheets and truly making sure we understand- even if that means texting the groupme with a problem or emailing him, he is always willing to help. I really think Alex should be given extra recognition for truly going above and beyond all expectations because it really impacted the experience I have with chemistry by helping me learn how to enjoy the challenge of it. Also his enthusiasm and humor for the material makes it a little easier too." "Alex was a very effective study group leader, one of the most effective out of the 4 study groups I've joined from the SLC. He really knows the material and is enthusiastic about it. He goes above and beyond to offer help in anyway. Is always willing to help us study." "Really good at working with students to figure out what their weaknesses were and what mistakes they were commonly making and then helping them figure out how to fix them and showing them what to focus on on exams so they didn't repeat those mistakes." "Overall having Alex as a study group leader made taking Orgo II so much more manageable and is probably the main reason I was able to do as well as I did in the class."

Hobbies
I am a master at Ping Pong and chess. Most weekends I hang out with friends playing board games or drinking. I also volunteer for the HIV/AIDS resource center in Ypsilanti. After my undergrad I hope go to the school of public health and then to medical school to study infectious disease. My ambition in life is to help people living with HIV, and populations of health disparities.
