With a passion for history, Joel Greene - Founder of History Brought to Life - began exploring ways to make history fun for students to learn. "I learned the most from the teachers who had a passions for what they were teaching. They made a lasting impressions on me and I wanted to find a way to pay that forward," Greene explains. Through research and exploration, Greene became and expert of Untied States history and honed his presentation skills in order to create an energetic and unforgettable learning experience.
