I have a Ph.D. in Urban Planning and Environmental Policy, M.A. and B.A. degrees in Mass Communication and Journalism, a B.Sc. degree in Mathematics (Minor Physics). I took 120 credit hours of college education towards a bachelor’s degree in Economics as well. Moreover, I took some graduate classes of Education. Currently, i.e., in 2022-2023, I am teaching On-level Statistics and College Prep Math classes.
On my leisure time, I enjoy listening to music, touring, and reading. I love teaching. I strongly believe that helping others to be successful in life is the highest public good one can do. I am a husband and a father of three kids. Thank you for reading my short Bio.
