I'm excited to share my professional journey as the Fisher Designated Professor of Operations and Business Analytics at The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business. Throughout my career, I’ve focused on driving transformation in supply chain management, fostering sustainability, and supporting emerging leaders in the field. I’m particularly proud of the impact we’ve made through initiatives like the Pathways Program, where we’ve raised over $800,000 for scholarships and research, while connecting countless students with industry mentors. Whether it's through teaching, research, or speaking at international conferences, my goal has always been to pay it forward and help others learn. Feel free to take a look at my full bio to learn more about my work and passion for education and sustainability.

A 2017 survey revealed that the absence of board orientation and education made it difficult for nonprofit board members to achieve effective governance. Today, corporate boards face increased pressure to navigate complex environments, manage risk, and drive growth. Many first-time board members lack the necessary knowledge, leading to mistakes and missed opportunities. Boardsi's Executive Education Suite provides the essential skills and ongoing support needed for successful board service.
