I am a world-travelling, religious scholar who lives and breathes religion and loves to talk about religion with my students. Braving machine guns in Jericho and the rain forest along the Argentinian-Chilian border, I like to bring my expereinces to class. On a more mundane level, I received my M.A. in religious studies from the University of South Florida. In a previous period of my life, I was a reporter, and so hold a B.A. in mass communications from USF and a Ph.D. in adult education, with my cognate in distance learning.
