I hold a BA in History with minors in Women's Studies and Humanities as well as an MA in History. My area of specialty is women's history and American (United States) history from the 1560s to 1960s.

I have recently completed continuing education units studying in-depth how slavery in the United States began, the lives of those enslaved, and the abolinisits who fought to free them.
