  Developed a 10-hour, 4-part webinar series on tea and international politics. This is now offered as a Masterclass at the UK Tea Academy, and is held on a regular basis throughout the year. Combined my education on international politics with my certification as tea sommelier, and created a completely new class. Throughout the masterclass "How Tea Changed the World", the students get to follow the history of the world and international politics from the shade of the tea bush. We will touch upon wars, trade, revolutions, innovation, religious movements, colonialism, and of course: the discovery of and infatuation with the wonderful drink of tea, everywhere it has travelled.
