As an adjunct professor at Cornell University, I focus on bringing practical, real-world experience to the online classroom, particularly in the field of project management. My role involves guiding students through complex concepts by combining academic rigor with hands-on learning approaches. I facilitate discussions, mentor students on applying theoretical frameworks to real-world scenarios, and provide feedback that helps them refine their analytical and decision-making skills. Leveraging my industry experience, I design projects and assignments that simulate professional environments, encouraging students to develop critical thinking, leadership, and strategic planning capabilities. By bridging the gap between theory and practice, my aim is to prepare students to excel in dynamic and challenging project management roles.
