About

I am an associate professor at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, where I teach courses on many different topics, including American foreign policy, Chinese politics, European politics, Middle East and North African politics, and the politics of language.

I have a PhD in Political Science from the University of Missouri, an MA in Teaching from the University of Southern California, a MA in International Policy Studies from the Monterey Institute of International Studies, and a BA in Asian Studies from the University of Denver. I served in the US Army from 2004-2009, during which time I studied Chinese at the Defense Language Institute.
