I have been a faculty member in the Business\Accounting program at Seton Hill for 25 years. In that time, I have served in many roles with academic and administrative duties. My current role has me teaching fulltime and acting as an administrator for program affairs. I have taught in the traditional, ADP, and graduate formats. I have a BA from the University of Pennsylvania, an MBA from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and a DBA from the University of Phoenix. The doctoral dissertation I completed focused on the relationship between financial statement usage and business performance in small women owned business. My main areas of academic interest involve management, accounting, and entrepreneurship. In addition to my academic background, I bring to the classroom my experience, over the years, as the owner of several small businesses.
