My interest include volunteering to help grow and improve the local chapter of Association of Government Accountants.  I enjoy attending and watching college football, women's basketball and softball.  I am active in governance of my local church having served in various capacities on the church board.

By Appointment

I have served on local and national committees for the Association of Government Accountants and look forward to serving on committees here at the University of Central Oklahoma.

My teaching philosophy is to help the student master the subject through question and answer. Sometimes, when I am asked a question, my response will be phased back to the student in the form of a question. This allows the student to think and talk through the question out loud, often times they are able to answer their own question. I feel that this discovery on the students part will allow them to remember the answer and go on the accomplish even greater tasks.
