With a passion for career education totaling 35 years of classroom teaching/ industry experience, I have a strong understanding of what students need to be successful in both the classroom and career. I gain inspiration from student success, and from my connections to industry, which allow me to stay current with the latest industry & employment trends. Seismic shifts in consumer behaviors put pressure the relevancy of our industry, and we educators in Graphic Communications, strive to maintain an active awareness of the evolving and shifting graphics’ industries to bring relevancy to the classroom.
