About

I want to help you to the best of my ability! My go-to courses/Assignments: K-12 Classwork: English, Reading, Writing & Comprehension Social Studies, History, and Research Project development College Prep: College Apps, Transfer essays, Early Academic Planning Undergrad Classwork: Pre-law, Legal Studies, Political Science, Public Policy and liberal arts related assigments (that require heavy research and writing accumen) Professional Development: Resume one-pagers, Interview prep using S-T-A-R method, networking tips and tricks to break into your industry I grew up in Antioch, CA, mid-size town, suburban, middle-class neighborhood. I went to school at various community colleges: Diablo Valley College, Los Medanos College, and Berkeley City College. Lastly, I completed my undergraduate degree and Professional Paralegal certification at University of California, Berkeley. Along the way, I resonated with learnings from Law, Entrepreneurship, Community Development, Monetary and Public Policy, Political Science, Psychology, Social Psychology, and Commercial/Residential Real Estate. After undergrad, I took my talents and curiosity to the Real Estate Banking and Finance industry. Working at JPMorgan Chase wasn't easy; many mentors and friends supported me along the way and continue to do so. Since leaving JPM, I have honed in my focus on serving others, working in the Consumer Protections at the highest state law office in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where I am able to support attorneys in protecting consumers from abuse or disenfranchisement by big businesses. I continue to tutor with Sparc to pay it forward to you, so please do not hesitate to email me with any of your needs: obioma@berkeley.edu. From K-12 to undergraduate coursework, advice about extracurriculars, your early professional resume and network building; I am open to hearing your story and and helping you achieve more :)
