Greetings!

Welcome to “The Ph.D. Journey” – the beginnings and continued development of my educational saga.Included along the way will be editorial comments, all prime for publishing, which will describe my synthesis of thought, my reflections on work completed, and the refinement of what will become a dissertation to fulfill the requirements for a Ph.D. in Education from George Mason University.

This Google Site is structured in accordance with GMU requirements for an online portfolio, described in greater detail on the About the Program page.

Accordingly, Goal Statements serve as very high level collections of maturing thought and the Program of Study and its sub-pages cover the course-by-course progress expected.

The Research Reflections page provides a focused treatise on how my academic research interests have been molded along the way.

The Professional Ponderings page adds how my work career has influenced my academic pursuit.

And the Analytical Thinking page brings it all together into a dissertative agenda which is further detailed on the Dissertation Drafting page in order to demonstrate readiness to proceed to the dissertation phase of this journey.

Thanks for joining me along the way!
