About

My Appelatives: Renaissance Mensch, Entrepreneur, Startup Sage, and Holistic Guru. My Passion: Entrepreneurship-I galvanize students and entrepreneurs to envision and develop business start-ups. Business & Service-Learning Consulting: I facilitate innovative business development projects. On my own and/or in collaboration with students, I consult and coach entrepreneurs and business leaders on small business planning, strategy, and problem solving. Global, Cross-Industry Business & Educational Leadership Experience: I enrich my teaching and research drawing on 15+ years of global and cross-industry business experience. Cross-Disciplinary, Global Education: My eclectic education enables me to innovate and imagine serendipitous lines of flight. For inspiration, I call upon my degrees and studies in business, philosophy, literature, linguistics, computer science, mathematics, German, French, comparative cultural studies, the business of cinema, and philosophies of risk and epidemiology. My Career Objectives: I aspire to positions that leverage and challenge my passion and talent in teaching and directing programs in entrepreneurship and leadership development. Ideally, I thrive when motivating and managing groups across industries, facilitating creative collaboration between students and corporate leaders. My Dream: To start a think tank retreat to synergize entrepreneurism, learning and leadership development with holistic, healthy and affirming self-actualization best practices. My Motto: Risk living now. Aspire for greatness. Accept worst case as improbable, but bearable. Identify with others, for better or worse. Protect and nurture your body and mind as if you were your only child. Do these things, and you will love life, and live well.
