Chris comes to UTS as a Blackboard Administrator. Before Emory, he was at Georgia Perimeter College where he was the Desire to Learn Administrator. Desire to Learn is another learning management system similar to Blackboard and Chris did that work as well as online instructional technology and faculty support for four years. Prior to his work at Georgia Perimeter, Chris was an online English instructor for 5 years at Strayer University.
An Atlanta native, Chris received his undergraduate degree in English from Georgia State University and his Master of Arts degree from the University of Tennessee (Go Vols).
For fun, Chris plays drums and keyboards and renovates his attic. He also spends a lot of time keeping up with his 9-year-old son.
