Previous Advertising in Tampa and Richmond
Professional

The earlier part of my career was spent in advertising in Tampa and Richmond. My time as an account executive in advertising taught me the value of teamwork and how creative solutions can always be found for the most complex problems. I still employ those lessons not only in teaching but in my volunteer activities as well. There are always many viewpoints and it is my task to balance them fairly for all involved.
