I am an educator and researcher dedicated to helping students navigate and critically engage with modern technologies. I teach across undergraduate and graduate programs at the David Eccles School of Business and the College of Humanities at the University of Utah. My courses focus on statistics, databases, data analytics, computer programming, code studies, rhetoric, writing, and artificial intelligence.
My teaching philosophy combines hands-on technical training with broader discussions about the social, ethical, and cultural dimensions of digital systems. Drawing from more than 40 years of professional experience, I bring real-world knowledge into the classroom and help students build practical, career-ready skills.
I emphasize project-based learning, collaboration, and interdisciplinary problem-solving. Whether students are learning SQL for data-driven decision-making or examining the social implications of algorithms, my goal is to create an inclusive environment where technical expertise and critical inquiry strengthen one another.
