I grew up in Sri Lanka and later moved to Singapore and Melbourne to continue my studies. Moving between countries at a young age taught me a lot about adapting, rebuilding and pushing yourself outside your comfort zone.

I completed the UK Cambridge Advanced Level examinations in Sri Lanka, where I achieved the highest marks in the country for both Mathematics subjects in my examination year, as well as the highest overall A/L average nationally.

I went on to study Mechanical Engineering at the National University of Singapore before completing a Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Modelling at Deakin University in Melbourne. Mathematics has always felt natural to me, not just because of the answers, but because of the clarity and structure behind it.

I began tutoring in 2012, initially helping friends and younger students. Over time, what started as something small became something I genuinely cared about. Since 2016, I have focused on VCE mathematics and have worked with students of different abilities, goals and learning styles. One thing I have always believed is that real understanding is far more powerful than memorisation.

Outside of teaching, I enjoy playing guitar and experimenting with music, even if I am a little rusty on the drums. I also have a strong interest in gemstones and jewellery design, and I am fascinated by the precision and craftsmanship involved.

At the end of the day, my goal is simple. I want students to feel confident in the way they think. Maths is just the medium through which that confidence is built.
