I grew up outside of Philadelphia and continued my love/hate relationship with long, cold winters by spending my college years at the University of Michigan. After working a few odd jobs (interning at the Philadelphia Eagles and then trying to sell Butterball turkeys), I finally decided to try my hand at teaching. I was lucky enough to land a great teaching assistant job in Chicago before moving to New York City to pursue my Master's Degree in the Teaching of Social Studies at Columbia University. I worked in the New York City public schools for a few years before moving to the American School Foundation of Mexico City where I taught history, philosophy, and ran their Model United Nations program. This is my first time in the Bay Area and I could not be happier to be a Hillsdale Knight!
