John is a senior professional lecturer teaching Investment Analysis, Financial Management, Financial Markets, Financial Literacy, Micro and Macro Economics. My hobbies include raising my five children, coaching youth soccer and baseball, and running marathons; to date I have completed 20 of them. At Marist, I have been involved in advising for the MBA Program, as well as serving as an advisor for both the Business Club and Beta Alpha Psi. We annually travel to New York City to visit the New York Stock Exchange and the Federal Reserve Bank. I also began the ASPIRE Program, which is an international study program designed to help finance and accounting students accelerate their studies and experience international travel.
