I earned my Bachelor's degree in Political Science at Binghamton University. While I majored in Political Science, I minored in Spanish, and can speak the language proficiently. After graduating Binghamton University, I worked on Wall St. for both the Bank of New York and for J.P. Morgan Chase. I worked in the banking divisions there for ten years, developing important life skills and flourishing professionally. At the same time, I began mentoring high school students through my local parish, and soon realized that teaching could be my true calling in life. 
      Therefore, I returned to school at night to obtain my Masters of Science degree in Social Studies Education from Queens College. I am currently certified to teach middle and high school Social Studies, and I have my Religious Certificate to teach Religion in the Diocese of Rockville Centre.

How did the Mayan civilization practice their religion? How did the Mayan people organize their cities? How did the Mayan people use their system of glyph writing? How did the Mayan people practice mathematics? Why did the Mayan people practice arts and crafts? How did their system of agriculture demonstrate their ability to adapt to their environment? These questions and more to be answered in this unit on Mesoamerican civilizations!
