“I share my vision with their vision,” he said of university administrators. “CITE houses one of the fastest growing programs in the university and I will make sure to put every possible effort to continue CITE’s momentum. I want to advance the college in a way that will match the university mission. I feel well positioned to pursue the CITE mission for educating our students and for graduating professionals who could participate in the economic development of our state and the region.”
