BIO

I graduated with a B.A. in economics from Drew University in 1982. For the next ten years, I worked in the business world for firms like General Electric and Citibank. In 1999, I completed my Ph.D. in economics at the University of Connecticut. Before coming to UWSP in 2000, I spent a year teaching at Gustavus Adolphus College in Minnesota. I also have taught classes at Trinity College in Connecticut. I have co-led two trips abroad with Barb Mihm focusing on International Retailing in Europe. I currently hold the rank of Associate Professor and also am the Research Associate at the Central Wisconsin Economic Research Bureau (CWERB).
