About
Oliver

Hey! I’m a San Diego based writer, filmmaker, and former SpaceX engineer.

A little bit about me: I grew up in the Bay Area and graduated from Tufts University in 2019 with a BS and MS in Computer Science and a minor in Economics. I worked as a software engineer until 2024, when I decided it was time to pursue my long held dream of making movies. So far it’s going pretty great!

But I didn’t do any of this alone—it was the time and effort of many teachers and mentors that got me there. The right teacher at the right time can change your life.

I prefer tutoring one-on-one (or in small groups) so that I can customize each lesson to the student’s specific needs. In addition to completing assignments and mastering material, your child will develop a sense of how they work best and learn strategies that will help them throughout high school and beyond. I hope to leave them with an interest in learning and a confidence in their ability to do so.
