Scholarly and Professional Achievements

Previous work in both for profit and nonprofit businesses has provided me with a wealth of insight and experience that I am eager to share with students. Through graduate work and previous work experience, I am intrigued with and enjoy working with entrepreneurs. Exposing students to critical thinking and problem solving as related to real business issues is a staple in my course development.
