Instructor of Practice, Management

I am a dedicated educator and supply chain strategist with more than 30 years of experience in corporate forecasting, strategic sourcing, and higher education. I鈥檝e always believed that supply chain education should be hands-on and immersive鈥攚hether through robotics, simulations, or even cake-based product flow models. My work spans curriculum development, project-based learning, and applied sourcing practices. Outside the classroom, I have served as a lead announcer for Olympic-level speedskating events, reflecting my passion for clear communication in high-performance settings.
