I left a PhD in English and Comparative Literature to teach High School full time. My research focused on 19th and early 20th Century American Literature, particularly on the ways the US Civil War was utilized to shape the country's historical narrative and national identity. I teach US History 1 and 2, US Government, and Colonial History. We utilize primary source textbooks that I compiled and edited myself.
