I have a degrees in education (Elementary Education, University of Missouri-Kansas City), applied lingustics (ESP, Aston University, Birmingham England) and clinical science (Cleveland Chiropractic College, Kansas City, Missouri).

My interests are in history, theology, biology and languages.

I have spent the last decade or so studying the history of the Christian Church with a focus on the Eastern Orthodox Church. I am a member of the Serbian Orthodox Church (New Gracanica Diocese) and work with members of the Georgian Orthodox Church on various projects, primarily language and education.
