"My time at UNT instilled a passion for economics and econometrics, allowing me to view economics as a means to understand the world. Pursuing economics by way of a BBA further prepared me for a variety of accounting, financial, and managerial issues I would later encounter both in my capacity as a consultant and now as a professor."
