Hi, I’m Regite — a PhD biologist based in Brooklyn who helps people bring order, evidence, and calm into the parts of life that feel complicated.
My background is unusual, and it’s exactly what makes my work effective. I hold a PhD in Biology and spent 10 years inside a CLIA/CAP-regulated clinical laboratory environment, where precision, documentation, and repeatable systems aren’t optional. I’m fully bilingual in Russian and English, and I bring the same standard to every service I offer: no guesswork, no hype, no one-size-fits-all templates.
Whether I’m untangling a chemistry problem set, translating a legal or medical document, or teaching someone to breathe through a stressful week — the method is the same. Understand the real problem first. Build a structure that actually fits the person. Leave them able to maintain it without me.
What clients consistently tell me: I listen carefully, I show up prepared, I explain the why behind every recommendation, and I never make anyone feel judged — about their grades, their closet, or their habits.
I work with individuals, families, students, and Russian-speaking clients across NYC and northern New Jersey. In person or remote.
Message me with what you’re working on. I’ll tell you honestly whether I’m the right fit — and if I’m not, I’ll point you to who is.
PER-SERVICE BLURBS
Science Tutoring
PhD-level biology, chemistry, and general science tutoring for high school, college, and graduate students. I don’t drill memorization — I find the exact conceptual gap and rebuild from there. Strong with pre-med prerequisites, lab reports, thesis work, and students who’ve been told they’re “just not a science person.” Available in English or Russian.
Translation
Professional Russian ↔ English translation by a PhD scientist with a decade in regulated healthcare. Specialties: scientific and medical documents, clinical and lab materials, academic papers, business and marketing copy, and personal/immigration documents. Accurate terminology, natural tone, fast turnaround.
Mediation
Structured, neutral facilitation for family, roommate, business-partner, and community disputes. I use formal decision-making frameworks to move conversations from emotion to clarity, so both sides leave with a written, workable agreement. Bilingual sessions available. (Note: I provide non-legal mediation and facilitation, not legal representation or advice.)
Meditation Instruction
Grounded, secular meditation instruction informed by both contemplative tradition and neuroscience. Beginner-friendly sessions for stress, sleep, focus, and burnout — no mysticism required, no belief system attached. Individual or small group, in person or remote.
Nutritionist
Science-based nutrition education and habit coaching from a PhD biologist. I translate the actual research on metabolism, longevity, and healthy aging into a plan that fits your real schedule — and I’ll tell you plainly which popular supplements and trends aren’t supported by evidence. (Educational coaching; I do not provide medical nutrition therapy or treat clinical conditions — for those I’ll refer you to a licensed RD or physician.)
Personal Training
Sustainable strength and mobility coaching built on physiology, not trends. Ideal for beginners, clients over 40, and anyone returning after a long break. Programs are progressive, joint-friendly, and designed so you can keep them going independently.See more
