I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science with a concentration in Comparative Politics, which provided me with a comprehensive understanding of political and historical subjects pertaining to past and present civilizations across the globe. Additionally, I have completed a Masters of Education in Secondary Social Sciences, specializing in history and political science. I am certified by the state of Alabama to teach social sciences to students in grades 7-12. With over four years of teaching experience in world history and 20 years of research in world history and its politics, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the classroom.
