Andrea Padilla

Teacher/Mentor

Andrea is a Math Teacher and Mentor at Fusion Academy in Palo Alto. She attended Saint Mary's College of California, a small liberal arts college, where she earned her Bachelor's degree in Applied Mathematics. Saint Mary's also led her to develop a passion for tutoring, smaller learning environments, and using mathematics in research. In her free time Andrea does a lot of reading, and reads upwards of 75 books a year. She enjoys reading adult fiction but prefers young adult fiction, because of the important representation being published. Andrea plans to do plenty of traveling in the future, most importantly visiting Greece and returning to Paris. In the future Andrea is interested in pursuing a Master's degree in statistics, and hopefully one day working for a non-profit in education.
