I earned my Bachelor of Science Degree in History, Political Science, and Education from Southern Illinois University Carbondale in 2002. Through coursework at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, I was able to add English to my teaching certification. I completed my Master of Arts in History at Southern Illinois University Carbondale in August 2011.
I achieved the rank of Jedi Master in 2010. However, the details about that are classified.
