I have a BA in Political Science, History, and Secondary Education and a MA in American Studies. I have over 10 years of experience teaching high school and college students social studies and critical thinking skills, and have been developing curriculum for homeschooled students for the last 7 years.

My expertise in teaching is in helping students see the many ways that history, geography, politics, and economics intersect.
