Early Bird Special: Mon–Wed, 8:10 AM – 8:30 AM. I can meet you anywhere on campus by appointment.
Friday sessions are for students who need to catch up. Log into Zoom, or show up in person, turn on your laptop or use the ones in the Study Hub (login: Student password: Stu18kap] ) and finish your late or missing work with me there to answer questions in real-time. Let’s get it done!
Serious issues/Hard concepts: Meet me Face-to-Face at the Study Hub.
Moderate guidance: Join the Zoom Room.
Quick questions: Text (714-367-4861) or Email. Include your first and last name!
Privacy/Personal issues: Call or text me directly.

Study Hub Perks: 2nd floor LAMA. Free tutoring, laptops, whiteboards, meditation space, and even a childcare room.
If you can’t make it to a scheduled meeting, please reschedule as soon as you can. If I have to cancel due to a family emergency, I will let you know and we will find a new time. No stress—just keep me in the loop!

Schedule and Student Consultation Hours outside of the hours listed:
All student conferencing hours OUTSIDE of face to face meetings are held on Zoom, which you can set up by appointment using email. I reserve the right to eat lunch in between 12 and 1230 p.m. even if the campus has no food options. I may also choose to leave my camera off at that time instead of letting you see me stuffing my face.
If you’re worried about your grade or falling behind, I’m here to help you get back on track. Here is how we can fix it:
Study Help: Use the Emergency Study Hub or attend the late-semester CRAM JAM (especially if you owe 1–2 essays).
Attendance: Missing just one class equals missing a full week of work. If you miss class, use Student Conferencing Hours to catch up.
Personal Support: Don't let "shame" keep you from coming to class. If work or family issues are getting in the way, please talk to me or a counselor so we can help.
One-on-One Guidance: If you are at risk of failing, I recommend spending 1–3 hours with me during office hours. I will sit with you and guide you through your assignments step-by-step.
I am happy to work around your job schedule, but you must take the initiative to reach out and set up a meeting.
Location: Lama Library, 2nd Floor.
Directions: Go past the security gate on the first floor of the library and proceed up the stairs toward LAMA 207. Loop around and loop for Mac laptops, which you are welcome to use. My desk is by the Apple laptops near the Student Mentor room.
