My management expertise includes organization design, team building, operations, process, education, marketing, sales and client management.

I am passionate about design problems where business, advanced technology and people intersect.

In the classroom I bring real-world experience together with a passion of hands-on learning. I often bring industry experts into the classroom and collaborate with businesses on real projects.
