Quitting gets easier the more you do it. You’ll quit, and you’ll quit, and one day you’ll look back and all you’ve ever done is quit.” What did you want to be when you were growing up? A film composer. Favorite Quote? “So much of what we do is ephemeral and quickly forgotten, even by ourselves, so it’s gratifying to have something you have done linger in people’s memories.” – John Williams One thing about your school that you are most proud of? Remote option for Ed.D. students, diverse faculty and affiliate scholars from across the country, and future-focused. What do you enjoy most about teaching? I love dynamic engagement with doctoral students whether it’s discussing their thoughts about an assignment or their dissertation. I learn more from them than they likely do from me. A piece of advice for students in your school? Always work to refine your craft. The kids deserve great teachers.
