ABOUT ME

Putting My Experience
to Work

I earned a doctorate in economics and was fortunate to be mentored by some of the most iconic, influential, even Nobel prize-winning, free-market economists in the world. I brought this training with me when I returned to California to teach at San Jose State University. I served for 30 years giving students the tools to pursue their dreams; 15 of those years I served as Chair of the Department of Economics.

Everyone in my department took a personal interest in the academic development of our students. I fought to give our students an education that was worth their time and money. I wanted them to have the economic reasoning and problem-solving skills that would allow them to reach their goals. Though I am now retired, my passion for serving students is undiminished.
