INSTRUCTOR

Michael Newman,
​Ph.D., CPA, CFE, CIA, CMA

​He was born in Canada and raised in South America (Bolivia, Chile, Peru) and Central America (Trinidad & Tobago) by American parents. His father was a geophysicist. He started my first company at age 18 and took it regional before selling it a year later. He helped with another start-up right after my 20th birthday. He took it National and sold it by the time when he was 30. Shortly after that (1986) He became involved in not-for-profits that worked with youth and later, abused youth.

He embarked on his current career in 2002. He find that being a professor, teacher and researcher is an extraordinarily rewarding experience! He look forward to spending the rest of his life in his new vocation/avocation!
