Instructor's Courses

Theater, business, and materials science engineering. What could I possibly do with that mix of training/education? Little did I know that everything I had done would create the perfect mix for the life I would have today. Supply chain is sort of a perfect mix of business and engineering concepts. Teaching in lecture halls is theater. Online videos are my opportunity to write and be on-screen. Students and co-workers create the perfect atmosphere to drive me creatively. I've taught over 30,000 students in-person, thousands more in online classes, and millions have seen my online videos. I’ve been blessed with an incredibly rewarding life and career. I'm constantly looking for opportunities to be the dumbest person in the room. On a never-ending search for new ways to inspire, educate, and innovate. I hate best practices. Always looking to do things the wrong way.
