What do you like most about the Krannert School and Purdue?
"I'm simply enjoy the relationships with the students, faculty, and administration. Krannert students are simply eager to learn, which makes being an adjunct faculty rewarding and fun. The faculty and administration do everything they can to make you feel part of the team."

How would you describe your colleagues at Krannert?
"I'd simply say that my colleagues at Krannert are welcoming...being adjunct faculty I continue to marvel at how much they have made me feel part of the team."

Why should a prospective student choose the Krannert School?
"You can be assured that you will get an excellent quantitative and qualitative education, you'll have spent your Krannert days with a work ethic just like the corporate world, and you'll gain excellent experience working in multi-cultural and multi-functional teams."

How would you describe the community?
"Purdue University is West Lafayette. The entire community revolves around it...the housing, the teaching facility, sports entertainment, guest lectures, major name entertainment, etc."

What do you enjoy most about teaching?
"The students keep me intellectually challenged and I'm forced to learn every day."

How would you describe your teaching style?
