2. Teaching Experience
Employed as an Assistant Professor of Information System Technology for the past 15 years.
During this period I’ve served as the IST Department Program Head as well as a member of the
Faculty Senate, Curriculum Committee, Enrollment Services Committee and several others. I’m
currently serving as a member of the Emerging Technology Committee. I’ve engaged in
curriculum development and have added courses dealing with project management and disaster
recover planning along with an Information Assurance certificate to the IT curriculum.
Transformed the ITE 221 Hardware and Software Architecture class into a hands-on learning
environment more suitable to equipping students to acquire the industry standard COMPTIA A +
certification widely recognized as the starting point for an Information Technology professional.
This course had previously been taught on a purely theoretical basis until I collaborated with the
college IT Department to acquire a number of PCs that had reached the end of their fiscal life
cycle. These machines formed the nucleus for a hands-on lab dedicated to that course. I also
served as the Principal Investigator for the NSF funded “Gateway to Computational and
Technological Careers” grant at TNCC. The four-year project at Thomas Nelson CC provided 36
scholarships of $2500 per year to students majoring in computer science, engineering and
mathematics. Recruitment efforts targeted populations typically underrepresented in CSEMS
career fields.
