You are so invested in all of us, and that means a lot. ... I’m not sure what path I want to take in Kogod yet, but you’ve given me a lot to think about. ... and I can’t thank you enough for an excellent introduction."
L. O., Spring 2022
"... I just wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful semester in IBUS! I’ve learned many new concept from your class and I’m much more confident now in my foundational skills. ..."
J. M., Fall 2021
"... thank you for being a great professor and for a great class. Having international business at first was scary as a female because I feel as if in a lot of countries it’s rare to see females with the major due to culture standards. But I wanted to say thank you, because after taking your class I definitely feel more confident with my choice and want to continue learning about it...."
A. A., Fall 2021
"... I learned a lot in this class. I can see my progress from my two exams and other assignments. Every meeting and discussion this semester is very meaningful... Thank you so much!.”
