SUMMARY VITA

As a professor, I am always looking for innovative teaching methods and approaches that will challenge the academic skills of the student. Over the past nineteen years, I have met students of different abilities and backgrounds. I am always excited when a student demonstrates improvement in the knowledge and skills needed in a subject matter. As much as I love to have all A students, I am equally thrilled to move a C student to a B.

My research interest has taken me to several parts of the world especially in Africa and in the Carribean. I worked in different cultures and have acquired some knowledge of different languages. In some cases, I functioned both as a researcher and administrator responsible for budgets over million dollars . This has broaden my view of the world and made me more of a cosmopolitan. I have authored several articles as a result of my research work and has co-authored with several international researchers. I am very proud of this. Come as you are, I am you will always feel welcome in my office. Simply put, I am a people person.

If you should enroll in the department, I can assure you of a challenging and yet a rewarding experience. Here are some of my publications reflecting my research interests:
