Experience
While in undergrad, I excelled in all courses related to Political Science and Writing. Specifically, I scored above average grades in the following classes: U.S. Government & Politics, The American Judiciary, The U.S. Presidency, Constitutional Law: Limits, Constitutional Law: Powers, the American Electorate, Media & Public Opinion, and Writing Across the Curriculum. Additionally, I served as a Teaching Assistant for three law school courses (Contracts, Constitutional Law, & Criminal Law) during my time as a student at the Pace University School of Law. As an educator, my interest in tutoring stems from a desire to guide young adults to success in their academic and professional lives. I have worked in higher education for almost seven years and will continue to do so because I value the impact of education inside and outside of the classroom.
