At the GW School of Business, she has taught courses in Leadership and Executive Development as well as HR Analytics — a course that she developed and was launched in January 2019. The course is a hands-on application approach to HR analytics in the online MBA and HR Management program.

Her years in the for-profit world serving as a senior leader in finance and administration for Sterling Software (now a part of IBM) took her around the globe integrating remote locations in Europe and Asia Pacific regions with the U.S. headquarters. Throughout her career, she has leveraged her competencies in leading change, driving results and building coalitions by increasing communication and visibility working with all levels of the enterprise to create efficiency and align resources with stated business objectives.
