"I am proud of the length of service to this University and to the Forensics team. I am also proud of the number of lives I have touched in my years of teaching and the relationships that have formed with numerous alumni who continue to contact me saying their time in our Department has been a positive impact on their life, personally and professionally."

"I believe the best thing I can do for my students is to help them see how developing good communication skills can help them take control of their own future. Learning how to communicate well affects a person's personal and professional relationships and can lead to unlimited achievements."
