As a university professor, my professional experience to date has provided an opportunity to teach, research and consult in the areas of marketing, international business and entrepreneurship. I have taught courses in marketing, international business and entrepreneurship at both the undegraduate and graduate level. As a researcher, I am especially keen to study various aspects of entrepreneurship in our country and internationally. My consulting experiences have led to assignments in multiple industries that include: textiles technology, the food and beverage industry and not-for profit organizations. I enjoy working with entrepreneurs and derive great satisfaction from serving as mentor capital. My consulting work has provided me with the valuable opportunity to work with organizations in India, South Africa and the United States. I enjoy establishing business links that can assist with fundraising and operational services and particularily take interest in offering counsel in marketing strategy. My life's passion lies in enabling opportunities. I derive great joy in seeing organizations form, blossom and flurish.
