My background is a mix of military and civilian. Graduated from the US Military Academy in 1995 with a BS in American Politics. Later, earned my Masters in Public Administration from Murray State University in 1999.
Served in the Army for 6 years, than switched to civilian life. Worked for Booz Allen Hamilton on a contracting team working mostly for the Joint Staff. Eventually switched over to teaching at the local community college. Became interested in teaching online, since my classes at the community college incorporated distance learning via tele-conferencing.
I have a passion for politics and how it effects the average tax-paying citizen!
Live in Northern NY, with my husband, 2 boys, 4 horses, 1 barn cat (watch out mice and birds), and the community dog! Hobbies include camping, fishing, biking, and am an avid horseback rider. Nothing like a good gallop!!!
