I use my formal management and science training to bridge the gap between research and business, and I apply these skills within a University setting
Qualifications
Bachelor of Science (Minnesota State University - Mankato)
Master of Business Administration (University of Minnesota)
Master of Science (West Virginia University)
Research Interests
I have formal research training in Plant and Soil Ecology and Physiological Plant Ecology. I worked as a scientist for over a decade at the University of Minnesota in this field.
I also have an interest in Business and Organisational Management. I received an MBA from the Carlson School of Management (University of Minnesota) and am very interested in understanding how effective business management can be utilized in the Tertiary Education industry.
