Hello! My name is Ariana Watkins, and I'm a second-year social studies teacher. I hold a B.A. in Psychology and an M.A. in Sociology, which gives me a unique perspective on history—I love exploring the people and social forces behind major events. My favorite historical eras are the Tudor dynasty and Ancient Rome. I'm excited to share my passion for the past and help you see how it connects to our lives today.
