Why did you choose to join the University of Arizona?

This is a great opportunity to lead a remarkable college of faculty, staff and students dedicated to innovation in the built environment, situated within a powerful multidisciplinary setting in a part of the world that is highly distinctive climatically, environmentally, culturally and socially. I also feel well-supported here in trying new ideas, allowing me to exert my own creativity in the role of an academic administrator.
