I earned the doctorate in business administration from the University of Kentucky, specializing in organizational behavior and human resource management; MA in Economics from the University of Arkansas, and the BA in Economics & Business Administration from Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas.

Teaching

I teach organizational behavior and human resource management courses both "on ground" and online.

My current research interests relate to issues affecting women in business, in particular the barriers to business growth for  women entrepreneurs.  Another current project examines the economic impact of domestic violence in the workplace.  I am a research affiliate of the University of Memphis Center for Research on Women.
