I am an associate professor co-chairing the Business Integrated Concentration at Oberlin College & Conservatory. My research focuses on human capital, careers, and talent management.  I have taught courses in general management and leadership, human resource management, and financial accounting.

While at West Point, I led the development of the Hacking for Defense course where cadets learn agile innovation through an immersive experience, solving real-world Department of Defense problems in cross-disciplinary teams.

Prior to academia, I worked at McKinsey and Company for nine years as a management consultant.  I earned my doctorate from Harvard Business School.  I hold an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and a Masters and Bachelors in Accountancy from the Weatherhead School of Management at Case Western Reserve University.
