Welcome
I'm so glad you're joining me here. Scroll down and take a look at the summary of my book. Then check out the summary of the Congregational Church that inspired Leading with Compassion. Also, I'm lucky to live in the Most Beautiful Town in America (The Travel 2022). Check out my notes below. Enjoy
About Me
I like to describe myself as an author, professor, amateur gourmet chef, avid birder and very amateur equestrian. I’m actively writing two more books to follow Leading with Compassion. I teach at the masters level for the University of Maryland Global Campus. My core courses are leadership and strategy. I’ve taught at all three levels at multiple universities. I also teach project management, operations management, sustainability and renewable energy.
Before becoming an author, I was the CEO of a small wind energy firm, a strategic planning consultant for the Federal Government, and an aerospace engineer. I also worked as a contractor to NASA many years building and flying Earth remote sensing satellites.
My Book
I like to say that I am an accidental author. I didn’t set out to write Leading with Compassion as a book. Instead, I was compiling materials for my masters students. I teach leadership, strategy, project management and much more. I’m constantly writing about my experiences teaching, consulting, working as a lay leaders in my church and more to illustrate academic concepts to make them come to life. As I was doing this, I saw a consistent thread coming together and I thought, maybe I could put this together and all of a sudden Leading with Compassion was born.
Step into the light, and uncover the beauty that’s been waiting for you all along.
