Associate Professor of Leadership Education and Higher Education
Kennesaw State University
My research and scholarship is focused on developing more capable participatory leaders through P-20 curricular design and intervention. My primary areas of study are postsecondary engineering preparation programs and graduate educational leadership programs. My career vision is to become a global leader in research that builds capacity and broadens the participation of P-20 students completing engineering and educational leadership courses of study and entering workforce. I seek to fulfill this vision by shaping practices and policies in retention, informal learning, pedagogy, professional competency, workforce development and life-long learning. Of particular interest are problem-solving and leadership-coupled professional competencies. My recent research (most recently funded by an NSF REE award) aligned with this theme investigates professional leadership-coupled competencies and related gaps within Engineering Curricula.
