Richard was very helpful in connecting us to three student teams from his Analytics for Business Decision Making this Fall 2023 semester. Our communication was simplified by his blend of academic and professional experience. He understood right away what our proposal was about, and relayed it effectively to the students. We witnessed a consistent application of analytical procedures by the student teams, and this showed very well in the final presentations. The students often asked us questions they said were prompted by their instructor, which demonstrated that their projects were under good supervision.
