Faculty Member
I grew up in South Africa and originally came to the USA to attend BYU. I am a marketing professional with over 20 years of marketing management experience, mainly in telecommunications and other online services marketing. In my long-time position as Marketing Manager for Direct Communications, I managed all aspects of marketing for an independent telecommunications holding company operating broadband companies in Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and Missouri. I have been a full-time faculty member at UVU since 2017 and absolutely love teaching at UVU. I consider it the privilege of a lifetime. As a Professional-in-Residence, I currently still consult as Marketing Manager for the Utah division of Directcom, which provides fiber broadband services to over 12000 customers in Eagle Mountain, Utah.
