Experience

I have 4 years of experience working for a private test prep company in Southern California as an SAT instructor and college essay consultant. I love working with kids, helping them achieve their dreams of attending a top college, and building their confidence as they transition to the next stage in their life! I'm an Assistant Professor of Political Science at UNF, have published numerous works on environmental issues, and have presented research at over 25 local, national, and international conferences. I've consulted for the United Nations Development Programme and Sierra Club, and worked for the City of Irvine, City of Long Beach, CBS, Global Roundtable on Climate Change, Center for Research on Environmental Decisions, and the Earth Institute at Columbia University.

Hobbies

As a native South Floridian and Gator alum, I love the outdoors and sports! I'm a fan of the Miami Marlins, Miami Heat, and Miami Dolphins, and I'm even warming up to the Jaguars (but when they play the Fins I know where my allegiance lies!). I'm also an avid runner, having completed 6 half-marathons in California. In my spare time I watch TV shows like The Walking Dead, Better Call Saul, Mad Men, House of Cards, and basically any comedy stand-up special on Netflix! Finally, I have really challenged myself to learn how to cook healthy foods.
