I have an M.A. in Political Science and postgraduate studies in economics, Human Development, and Gender, as well as a B.A. in Legal Studies. I've been an elementary school teacher for over four years, teaching world history and literature as my main subjects. I'm a member of the Women's History Network. I have taught elementary school students both online and in brick and mortar schools for over seven years and have always loved the interactions with my students. In my previous life, I was a consultant/researcher for various feminist NGOs, the United Nations, and the World Bank.
