About 

Before retiring to St. Mary's County and joining the faculty at CSM, I was the Chief Economist for the CME Group in Chicago. 

Educational Background 

I hold a Ph.D. in economics from Tulane University.  

Q&A

My style is relaxed and conversational. Classes typically involve both a discussion of key concepts, as well as an analysis of current, real world examples. Assignments often focus on a particular case study, with students examining and reporting on how a certain topic relates to that situation. 

I enjoy sailing and tennis.
