Biography
I am a Professor in the Business and Information Technology Department. Educating minds and inspiring futures at Glendale Community College. Industry expert turned instructor with a passion for empowering youth and young adults and adult learners. An advocate for learning and growth, I strive to assist every student in reaching their future goals.
As a dedicated educator, I takes pride in my grading practices and course collaboration, ensuring students receive meaningful feedback to enhance their learning journey. My experience extends beyond the classroom as I actively mentor students in DECA and Robotics, and I participate in various professional development opportunities and committees.
In addition to my educational roles, I have substantial experience in training, supervision, and program management within the corporate sector. With an MBA and a Bachelors in Business and Marketing, my diverse background has honed my skills in instruction, course development, technology integration, problem solving and people skills.
I brings a wealth of experience in education, bridging a successful career in industry with impactful teaching roles. Transitioning from the corporate sector, I began my educational journey in the high school sector, specializing in coding, business, marketing, professional development, hospitality and early childhood. My passion for technology and education has since flourished at Glendale Community College (GCC), where I instructs courses such as CIS105, BPC110, and various GBS classes.
