I completed my Doctoral Degree in December 2021. I was awarded the 2018 Outstanding Adjunct Faculty for the Undergraduate School of Accounting department.

I have taught and am teaching, Accounting 300 (Accounting Research and Communication), Accounting 1A (Introductory Financial Accounting), Accounting 1B (Introductory Managerial Accounting-Asset Management) and Auditing (310) at GGU.
