I hold a Doctor of Strategic Leadership, a Master of Arts in Leadership and Bachelor of Science in Organizational Communication. I am an adjunct professor of speech communication, communication and humanities and communication arts.
I came to the academic arena after ten years in retail management and over 21 years active duty in the Air Force.
I married to Su Yun in 1971 and have two adult children. Son, Leslie Donald, is the oldest and was a Captain in the U.S. Marine Corps. Les has two combat tours in Iraq. Daughter, Theresa Ann, was a member of the U.S. Peace Corps serving on the island of Carricaou, the Grenades; her Peace Corps specialty was Community Health focusing on AIDS awareness and prevention.
