I am currently working as a Professor in the
Department of International Studies at the Air War College at Maxwell
AFB, Alabama. I am instructing senior military officers in National
Security Decision Making, Global Security, and Middle East Affairs as
part of a curriculum leading to a Masters Degree in Strategic Studies
and International Affairs.
As part of an advanced program, each academic
year I advise a select group of students who develop strategic plans for
addressing diplomatic, military, and economic affairs in the Middle East
based on projected future scenarios.
I am also involved in extracurricular activities
as coach for the college’s bowling team and assistant coach of the
soccer team. In the community, I continue to be active with the Boy
Scouts, service as a Merit Badge Counselor, Troop Advancement and
Training Committees, and conducting leadership training for the local
council.
Thanks for taking the helm as class secretary
for the Alumni Newsletter.
Cheers!
