Greetings!
Thank you for visiting my site. Teachers and students may find useful links and resources about Hungary and the U.S.
based on my personal experiences in this site. For the 2007-2008 academic year I will be a Fulbright teaching assistant in
Hungary. During the 2006-2007 school year, I was in the Master of Arts in Teaching program at the University of Pittsburgh,
doing my teaching internship at West Mifflin Middle School. I have a bachelors degree in history and political science from
the University of Pittsburgh, a masters degree in secondary social studies education and am certified to teach in the state
of Pennsylvania. My previous experience abroad includes a 5 week summer language program in Moscow, Russia and a semester
in Budapest, Hungary. I am excited to represent the University of Pittsburgh abroad once again.

I am originally from Doylestown, PA, located about 25 miles North of Philadelphia in Bucks County. I attended Central Bucks
West high school where I was a member of the marching band. My most memorable achievement from Doylestown was constructing
a nature trail for my Eagle Scout project. It is my goal to return to the Central Bucks area to continue my career in teaching.
Enjoy my site!
