Time to get back to studying! Extremely excited to head back to school to grab another masters degree, this time a Masters of Arts in Global Security with a concentration in Irregular Warfare from Arizona State University.

My hope is that I can combine my skills as a historian and librarian to help understand the complex associations between information and irregular and asymmetric warfare.
