Bachelor's degree
Studied homeland security and emergency management structure, designed hypothetical scenarios and realistic response in local areas. Designed a framework for responders to adjust to a variety of circumstances. I wrote detailed papers and engaged in thoughtful discussions about world events such as 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, Boston Marathon Bombing, cyber terrorism, racism, diversity, immigration, and border security. This degree has given me the ability to dive deeper into the incident command structure, learn effective emergency management and disaster relief strategies, and it has allowed me to get experience in operations, disaster management, relief logistics, planning, financial planning, and long term recovery.
