Service Agenda

While on the tenure track, my service agenda is targeted to areas that align with my research agenda and demonstrate professional impact.

Service at the international and national levels maximize professional impact while activities at the local level enable professional networking and address local needs. All service activities provide valuable experiences that inform my research and teaching.
