Teaching Experience
My teaching career started back at Northern in 1999 as a teaching assistant within the Department of Engineering Technology. While at NMU, I had the opportunity to assist in teaching undergraduate courses such as Industrial Supervision and Humanity and Technology. In addition to teaching on campus, I was also involved in developing and conducting training programs in industrial supervision, safety and quality.
In 2002, I was hired as an instructor by the Department of Industrial and Engineering Technology at Southeast Missouri State University. While at SEMO, I taught a variety of courses including: Technology and Society, Introduction to Graphics, Multicolor Print Processes, Introduction to Computer-Aided Drafting and Design, Design Modeling and Processes, and Advanced Production Drafting.
In the spring of 2007, I accepted a position within the School of Technology at Eastern Illinois University.
