Bio
I am a fifth-year PhD candidate in Management at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. My research interests are in the intersection of work and non-work domains, focusing specifically on multiple job holding, work-life spillover/crossover, and local celebrities. In addition to my research, I have been recognized for my teaching by being awarded the Best PhD Instructor Award for both the College of Business and the University as a whole.
​
Prior to returning to academia, I worked at Ernst & Young in the People Advisory Services practice, where I specialized in organizational change management and culture change. I received a BA in Political Science and a BS in Business from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.

Harnessing the Power of Age Diversity
Are tensions between different generations escalating? In organizations, lack of trust between older and younger workers often yields a culture of competition and resentment that leads to real productivity losses. But when age-diverse teams are managed well, members can share a wide array of skills, knowledge, and networks with one another. Today’s organizations already have the means to help leaders take advantage of these assets: tools that have been used by cross-cultural teams for decades and by DEI initiatives more recently. But these tools are rarely applied to age biases and conflicts. To change that, the authors offer a four-part framework of identifying assumptions, adjusting your lens, taking advantage of differences, and embracing mutual learning.
