Introduction
Welcome to my home page.  Allow me to introduce myself to you.  I joined the faculty at Illinois State University in January of 1997 as a professor in the Department of Management and Quantitative Methods.   I received my doctorate in business, as well as my M.B.A., from Florida International University in Miami.  My undergraduate degree is a B.S. in Journalism from the University of Florida in Gainesville.  Here at I.S.U., I teach Organizational Strategy, International Business, and International Management.  I have also taught courses in Human Resource Management, Business in a Multicultural Environment, and Foundations of Inquiry for incoming freshmen.  In 2002, I received tenure and was promoted to the rank of Associate Professor and in 2009 achieved the rand of Full Professor.  My research interests include corporate governance and expatriation.  Please click on the navigation bar for a list of abstracts from published papers.
