I have a Master of Arts Degree in History with a focus on the 19th Century US and Canada.  Throughout my university career, I worked as a teaching assistant leading tutorials and facilitated many undergraduate and graduate seminar discussions.  Working for 18 years with a management consulting firm, I developed executive training workshops and seminars. I have been interested in the American Civil War since I was a child and have gone on guided tours of many of the battlefields and significant historical sites and have been an active member of the Southern Ontario Civil War Roundtable group.
