My Teaching Philosophy
I encourage tomorrow’s leaders to think big. No matter what industry excites a student, someone has to be the next Henry Ford, Coco Chanel, George Lucas, Steve Jobs, or Elon Musk. It might as well be a Timberwolf. Many of the world’s most innovative businesses were started in a basement or a garage. I hammer away that a Northwood education, with its focus on free enterprise, provides a huge advantage to help accelerate success — so use it.

Why Northwood?
I am here because of the Northwood idea which promotes individual freedom and responsibility, a moral law, earned success, and free enterprise. Out of almost 6,000 colleges and universities in the United States, Northwood is the only one that has “Liberty and Business for All” proudly emblazoned across its website. It is a message I am excited to promote.
