My research and Extension programming both focus on regional economic development, downtown revitalization, local entrepreneurship, and a variety of other topics aimed toward strengthening rural economies. I earned my Ph.D. in Public Policy & Management from the John Glenn College of Public Affairs (Ohio State University).
