What Students Say:

One of my favorite professors. She has a great passion for what she teaches and helps all students excel in this class, but still makes us think and challenges us with creative projects and work that motivates and encourages us to learn and absorb history. Loved her approach and her passion. 10/10

She is well-spoken and her method of teaching actually makes you feel like you’re learning rather than just doing stuff for a grade.
