My passion is to be a good teacher, to encourage all of my students to succeed and to learn as much as possible about the world and Latin America. I enjoy meeting each of my students personally. If you have a minute to stop by and introduce yourself to me, I would greatly appreciate talking with you. Please let me know how I can make this course a great learning experience for you.

Our class is your chance to learn history and is geared to accommodate each of you. I encourage you to feel welcome to speak in class and engage others as you grow in your studies.
