Welcome:

    It is an honor to join the team at RU and a particularly exciting time to do so. I am enjoying my initial meetings and the opportunity to learn about the programs and strong connections here. From our student organizations to the outreach provided through the Business Assistance Center, faculty, staff, students, alumni and friends all speak of their pride in Highlander accomplishments. You can feel the energy of these groups when we talk about the direction of RU for our accredited graduate programs, the design process for our new state-of-the-art building, and the competitions and applied experiences planned for our students for next year.

    It is always a pleasure to start a position writing thank you notes to alumni and friends who are investing in a future for the College of Business and Economics and to work with faculty on creating new initiatives. It is an exciting time to be joining an incredible group of people and I appreciate the opportunity to be in the COBE at RU as we continue to honor our traditions and to build new legacies together.
