I graduated last May from Boston College with a Master's in Political Science & Government. I have a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Economics and Social Policy from the University of Leeds, England. Before I left for my undergraduate degree, I worked at a school teaching economics for about 9 months to students. I enjoyed the experience. After completing my BA, I tutored students in economics for about 2 years. I worked as a policy analyst for government for several years. I am passionate about politics - American Politics and International Politics. I enjoy writing political papers and I am skilled in quantitative and qualitative analysis. I like keeping up to date with political development around the world by reading political magazines, newspapers and blogs. I focus on helping students to develop key skills in political science, such as being able to describe, explain and compare political principles, processes, policies, institutions and behaviors, analyze and interpret data, and build arguments for essays. During my spare time I like to take my dogs for long walks.
