Throughout my professional
career I’ve always found myself in the role of helping others to understand
technical concepts, and, to find ways of improving their programming
techniques. This contributed greatly to me being moved quickly into team
leadership and, later, team management. I knew that further into my career I
would want to teach, and, for over a decade, I have done just that. My teaching
style concentrates on providing a supportive learning environment, academic
guidance, and subject matter motivation.
My
industry experience includes areas of retail, finance, and tele-communications.
After over twenty years of industry experience and a decade of higher education
teaching, I have returned to my alma mater, GSU, to carry on teaching of
computer science. I revel in the idea of learning, developing and teaching new
things.
