Curious, Determined, Creative
Hi! I’m Oscar! I’m an Academic Coach with Staying Ahead of the Game LLC. I earned my undergraduate degree at Georgia Tech with a dual major in Aerospace Engineering and Physics, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Physics and Astronomy at Rice University.
I chose to coach with SAOTG because I’ve wanted the opportunity to teach others in a professional setting for a long time. I love helping students reach that “ah-ha!” moment and watching their excitement and curiosity grow. I hope to pass on the lesson that learning itself is fun. Too often, grades and stress overshadow curiosity, but when students stay curious, they can tackle any challenge.
