I am a lifelong learner and consider myself a passionate
advocate of learning in every form. Following 45 years of business and law
practice and two “retirements” I joined the Sullivan University faculty. I teach
the classroom and online courses BUS204 (Introduction to Business Law and
Ethics) in the College of Business Administration and LAW545 (Employment
Law) for the Graduate School. My proud association with the Sullivan University
System spans five decades, including non-executive chairman of the board of
directors and vice president for legal services. I served for several years as
Executive Vice President and General Counsel of a national healthcare services
provider, which I co-founded in 1998. In my corporate counsel positions I
handled legal compliance as well as contracting and corporate governance
matters, and oversaw the companies’ human resources functions.

Between degrees from the University of Louisville College of Arts and Sciences and
College of Law, I served on active duty in the United States Marine Corps. After graduation
from law school I completed a postgraduate fellowship at Georgetown University Law Center in
Washington, DC. Among my other “careers” I have been a medical organization CEO and was
Administrative Assistant and counsel to Kentucky Governor Louie B. Nunn.
