Experience Summary
I earned a B.S. from Carnegie Mellon University with a double major in Industrial Management and Economics.After graduating college in 1992, I began my career in financial services. I held several securities licenses, all of which I attained through self study. As my career advanced, I was frequently asked by my managers to train newer employees in the daily operations in our offices. When I became a manager, I took on this responsibility in a more formal role, including preparing new hires for their licensing exams. In 2001, I was hired to train all new brokerage personnel in all aspects of brokerage operations, as well as working with management to identify training needs and developing training programs.
Teaching Style
I enjoy teaching and helping others achieve goals they thought were beyond their grasp. I believe that most people can learn to do many things, if they are willing to work towards that goal. I feel many people struggle to learn things because they are not presented to them in a manner or style that is not conducive to their style of learning. I make it a priority to ensure that my students not only know what to do, but how and why to do it. I believe this approach is more beneficial to the students as it increases their desire to learn.
