This page serves as a dashboard for all of my professor-related activities.
EDUCATION IS NOT THE FILLING OF A POT BUT THE LIGHTING OF A FIRE.
—W.B. YEATS
Starting in August of 2016, I served as a full-time faculty member at ASU’s W. P. Carey School of Business. In May of 2020, I decided to spread my wings.
I may return to academia at some point, ideally as a professor of practice at a school that truly values the contributions of its teaching faculty. (Oh, and without the presence of a stifling bureaucracy.) Alternatively, I could see working for an organization that seeks to disrupt higher education. Location-wise, the idea of teaching in another country appeals to me. 🇨🇦
