CAREER OBJECTIVE
My career objective is to teach various graduate courses to diverse populations of students on the topics of conflict analysis and resolution, critical incidents and crisis management, systems design, research methods, psychology, and sociology within traditional and/or virtual classroom settings. In addition, I plan to continue conducting and publishing my research with an emphasis on conflict and crisis management including extreme cases of intra-family conflict and crises. Those cases may include filicide and other types of intra-family homicide, honor murders, violence, aggression, and revenge. I also plan on continuing to organize and conduct international workshops and trainings addressing conflict prevention, mediation and resolution.
