Welcome, students

Finding your voice

My focus is to develop students in finding their business voice - one filled with the creativity and business rigor that is demanded by today’s executives.  

As a student, you will learn to marry business models with current innovative and creative approaches to deliver a total value proposition.

 

Faces of our future

I was drawn to teaching in the MBA, Design Strategy program (DMBA) at California College of the Arts as a natural extension of my work interests: Futurists, Strategy, Finance + Business, and overall recognition of the unique Silicon Valley perspective to today’s most successful companies. CCA attracts promising students from around the world who want to attend one of the best art and design schools in the U.S. We educate talented, visionary students to become versatile makers with inventive solutions to advance culture and society.

I am honored to influence the unique perspective the DMBA graduates bring to innovation in the Bay Area and beyond.
