I have been an educator on Outschool since February of 2018. I have my MBA and MHA, both of which have taught me the value of conducting research and asking questions. I have a passion for history and learning. You can usually find me in the middle of 2-3 books or watching a documentary.

This class is about a skyjacking incident that happened in 1971. All conversations about the weapon that was shown and security will include comparisons todays security measures at airports.
