Contact Information

I joined the Sigmund Weis School of Business in 2017 and have taught Financial Accounting, Cost Accounting, Accounting Information Systems, and Global Business Perspectives. My research interests include internal audit, internal controls, management and analyst forecasts, non-GAAP earnings, and management teams.

Beyond teaching, I enjoy engaging with students on a wide range of topics, including current affairs, Christianity, technology, and Tesla. Advising is also a key part of my role, as I work closely with students to help them plan their courses and stay on track for graduation.

In recognition of my commitment to teaching and mentorship, I received the SWSB Outstanding Teaching and Advising Award in 2020 and the Lawrence A. Lemons Distinguished Advising Award in 2023.
