1.B. Scholarly Gatherings

Satisfactory rating requires participation in professional meetings, field conferences, and other scholarly gatherings.

In addition to regularly attending conferences and meetings (below), my work is also presented by collaborators at other meetings that I do not attend. I also occasionally attend meetings of the American Society for Quality’s Blue Ridge, Lynchburg, Northern Virginia, and Charlotte chapters (approximately 4-6 times per year).
