About Me

I am a dedicated social scientist with a PhD in Political Science from the University of Texas at Dallas. With over 15 years of experience in both tutoring and classroom instruction, I have developed a robust teaching philosophy. My expertise includes AP World History, and I have had the privilege of teaching a diverse array of courses at New York University Abu Dhabi, including Gender & Globalization; Varieties of Capitalism; Transitional Justice and Introduction to Comparative Politics. I take great pride in mentoring students as they navigate their academic journeys, including guiding Rhodes Scholarship recipients through their capstone projects. My dedication to education extends beyond traditional methods; I continually seek innovative ways to inspire and empower my students, enriching their learning experiences and helping them reach their full potential while fostering critical thinking and encouraging student engagement.
