Colm earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from the University of Houston. He brings hands-on laboratory experience to his coaching, having worked as a Laboratory Coordinator at Lone Star College and managing research and inventory in the Kurti Lab at Rice University. Colm enjoys helping students build confidence with material that often feels intimidating, especially in the sciences.
Colm supports students in developing a strong grasp of chemistry and core scientific concepts. Drawing on his lab and research background, he helps students connect classroom ideas to real-world application and approach problem-solving with structure and patience. His experience coordinating labs gives him an eye for detail and organization that he passes along to the students he works with.
Colm was a Mini Ninja Coach at Iron Sports Gym, where he helped kids build skills and confidence through movement and play. Chemistry is his favorite subject, and he’s a longtime fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
My favorite is Think Big because real progress, whether in the lab or the classroom, starts with being willing to aim high and not underestimate what you can accomplish.
