I am a passionate learner committed to serving those around me through development and education. I place high value in the character of who we are, and my professional mission is to impact the depths of the character - even for myself. The foundation of my virtues are: service, respect, humility, and critical thinking.

I currenlty serve as the director of training for Lincoln Financial Group in Fort Wayne, and hold a doctorate in Adult and Occupational Education from North Dakota State Univeristy. My primary of focus is on followership and leadership in organizations. I have managed operations, changing culture, and growing executive leadership teams, and I just can't get enough!
