I like to take an open, interactive, and hands-on approach in teaching courses. Providing positive reinforcement and support is an important part of my teaching style. Experience both in the business and education world, along with my passion for teaching and helping others, enable me to be an effective instructor.
My background includes teaching and training for many years in business and computer-related areas. My career began in the traditional educational arena, including elementary, middle school, and high school teaching. The direction of my career moved into the corporate and business training arena in conjunction with the community college environment. I come to the College of DuPage with over 20 years of teaching and training experience.
