Debating, discussing, and continually learning about American society, past and present, are among my favorite activities. This probably explains my genuine enjoyment in helping students deepen their understanding of American history and the social sciences. I received my PhD in political science in 2011 with a specialization in American politics and research methods. Throughout graduate school, I taught my own courses in addition to working as a teaching and research assistant. Currently, I work as an education research analyst for the U.S. Department of Education. I also tutor low-income students from Washington, DC through the non-profit organization, Horton's Kids.

I can help students of all backgrounds improve their subject-area knowledge and advance their educational and career goals by developing and implementing a student-specific learning program.
