I am a graduate of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale and the University of Texas at Arlington. I received my BA in History at Southern Illinois and my MA in History at Arlington. While attaining my MA, I worked for the UTA academic support center. While there, I tutored various sections of history, including Roman History, American History, and European History. In addition to tutoring, I also worked directly with a history professor as a supplemental instructor. In that position, I led group study sessions to help aid students comprehend the material. I am currently an adjunct history professor at Tarrant County Community College. I love teaching and it is very satisfying to interact with students. I always seem to learn just as much as they do! When I am not teaching history, reading history, or writing about an historical topic, I am probably either watching a baseball game or outside playing golf, disc golf, tennis, or softball.
