About Me

I am currently employed as a professorial lecturer at American University in Washington DC. My major concentration is political theory and my minor is comparative politics. I have done research into punishment theory and its applications to prisons. Subsequently, my political science background has been applied to justice, law and society so I currently teach classes at American University on justice, law, and criminology. I have a vast knowledge of political science ranging from the philosophy of politics to state and local government. I spent the summer of 2012 in various countries in Europe studying the European Union which was an invaluable immersion experience. Because of my research interests, I have vast knowledge of the judicial and legal system to supplement my political knowledge and I have presented my research at numerous conferences. I have taken seminars on classroom best practices at University of Houston in summer 2017. Additionally, I attended the first American Political Science Association teaching and learning symposium on classroom education in November 2018. This background in political science and law and society has equipped me for tutoring in a number of areas - specifically government, political science, philosophy, and US constitutionalism. I am also well equipped for essay editing, grammar, and English comprehension as writing is integral to my studies as a legal researcher and legal research professor. I'm very interested in tutoring students as education is a deep personal passion of mine! I'm lucky to have encountered passionate teachers and professors who inspired me, and I hope to deliver that same passion to my clients. I utilize patience and encouragement until a student is confident in the subject matter and in themselves. Hobbies: art, reading, writing, books, music
