Bio:
Booking agent turned techno geek. Worked in the music business in Nashville, TN for several years - now Dean of Online & E-Learning at St Charles Community College in Cottleville, MO. I worked in the music business and lived in Nashville, TN for almost 20 years, but I grew up in Leadwood, MO—about an hour and a half south of St Louis, population 1247…yes, that is twelve hundred not thousand. I started teaching at SCC in fall of 2006 in Business Technology, working up to the rank of Professor, and served as advisor for Phi Beta Lambda. I now serve as Dean of Online & E-Learning. Our departments supports development and instructions of all online, hybrid, and remote courses while also supporting E-Learning solutions in F2F courses as well.
