My name is Tyler Young (I prefer Mr. Young). My undergraduate degree is from West Texas A&M in political science and social sciences. I have a Master of Arts in Political Science from Texas State University and a Master of Public Policy from University of Texas at Dallas. My academic focus is in Political Philosophy. I have had the honor of being the statewide chair in government for Texas Community College Teachers Association and have presented a paper at Western Political Science Association.
I am married to my lovely wife Michelle and we have a nine-year old son Conner and four-year old twins Valerie and Pierce. I would be remiss to not include my corgi, Russell. Yes, not long ago, I sat where you are now. Please trust that I can understand your hopes, your fears, and the obstacles you face on your journey to obtain a higher education. Good communication is the key to success in any learning environment. Remember that I am here to assist. If you have a problem, question, or concern please feel free to contact me by phone or e-mail.
